Shark and Ray Awareness Day is celebrated around the globe and strives to bring awareness to the perils that at-risk species of sharks and rays face every day. On this day, we celebrate our partnership with the AZA SAFE Shark and Ray program that helps to protect sharks and rays in the wild and educates the world on the importance of shark and ray conservation. We encourage you to learn more about sharks and rays, the dangers they encounter, the threats to their environment and what you can do to help.
