Antarctic krill: Keystone species under threat. Climate change & overfishing impact their survival. Melting sea ice reduces habitat & increases fishing access, harming predators. Scientists urge CCAMLR for stronger protections, including more #MPAs

A new study suggests converting popular dive sites into fully protected #MPAs would significantly benefit marine life and local economies. Only a small % of existing MPAs are fully protected. 🐟

A small dive levy could generate billions for conservation.

🇰🇷 South Korea has expanded its conservation efforts by designating two new #MPAs off Jeju Island. One area specifically safeguards the critical habitat of the endangered Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphin, of which fewer than 120 remain near the island.
