Protect Palau 's sharks and other marine creatures.
The Palau Shark Sanctuary, Palau 's first shark conservation organization, was founded in November 2001, in response to the reckless slaughter of Palau 's sharks for shark fins, by foreign vessels licensed by Palau to fish in their waters.
Goal
Establish the waters within Palau 's Exclusive Economic Zone as a Marine Sanctuary for Sharks.
