Dangerous decline in shark numbers in oceans around the world.
According to a recent study, the number of sharks in the world has decreased by 71% while the population of sharks in Pakistan has decreased by 85%.
According to the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), the number of sharks in Pakistan has dropped by 85%.
The WWF says the number of sharks worldwide has dropped by 71% since 1970, according to a recent international study published in the journal Nature.
According to the WWF, in the last 70 years, there were 69 species of sharks in Pakistan, but compared to previous years, only 15% of sharks remain in the Pakistani seas.
The top 20 scientists in the study say that the reason for such a decline in shark populations is their prey, which has tripled in the last 50 years.
According to experts, 100 million sharks are hunted worldwide every year.
Experts say sharks are vital to the oceans, maintaining an underwater food chain and feeding sick aquatic life in particular.
Sharks play an important role in identifying the health of the oceans and the changes that take place in them. International organizations have listed it as an endangered species.
