Thank you @saveourseas. This is timely and much-needed funding support. @andrewj_temple and I are excited for the opportunity to explore the Halavi guitarfish - building upon our completed WIO regional bycatch project -(BYCAM) previously funded by @wiomsa
.@NWambiji & Andrew Temple, co-leaders on their project, looking into the life history of the halavi guitarfish, acquiring information to help better manage a Critically Endangered species that is targeted for its meat & fins, locally & internationally.
