  • Despite the Bahamas being declared a shark sanctuary in 2011, their reputation among the local population is less than popular. Many fisherman will kill sharks simply for the sake of killing a shark. Here a Caribbean Reef Shark (Carcharhinus perezi) was killed, decapitated and simply dumped off a fish cleaning dock. No fish, jaws, teeth or anything else were removed.

  • In 2011 The Bahamas was declared a shark sanctuary, banning the killing of sharks. The ban would not have happened if sharks didn't attract tourist revenue. This Caribbean reef shark (Carcharhinus perezi) was killed despite the ban in 2013. The law and the perception of sharks has a gap that is slowly being filled as more local Bahamians reap the rewards of shark tourism.
