PDF |
|
 Great Whites have been making headlines for as long as we can all remember. But despite the bad wrap in the media, these sharks are not the attention seeking starlets the media would have us believe. In fact they're elusive and well on their way to being critically endangered, they're numbers are so low. In fact, they're a protected species in NSW.
Barry Bruce, senior research scientist with CSIRO has been working with Great Whites for over 20 years. Come and meet this passionate and knowledgeable shark scientist to find out what's being done to learn more about this fascinating animal.
When: 6-30pm - 7.30pm, Wed 17th March
Where: Reef Theatre, Sydney Aquarium
Cost: $10pp - includes entry to Sydney Aquarium. All proceeds go to the Great White shark project.

 Due to the popularity of our first screening we're showing it again!
Conservative fisheries scientists have predicted that by 2048 there will be no commercially viable fisheries - IN THE WORLD!
Recent fisheries data records in Australia are showing this prediction is not out of the question. In NSW, of the 80 commercially important fish species, less than 50% have had stock assessments done. And those that have had stock assessments show overfishing to be a common theme.
This is one of the most important environmental documentaries to come out in recent times. Click here to view a trailer of the film.
