SUFB 1237: Assessing Shark Fisheries in Bangladesh with Alifa Haque


Listen Later

This interview with Alifa Haque is a sample of the second episode of season 2 of the Beyond Jaws podcast about the science and conservation actions for wedgefish and guitarfish.

Alifa is a doctoral candidate at the University of Oxford and is studying shark catches in Bangladesh, her home country.

In this episode, Alifa tells the story of how she wanted to learn more about the shark fishery in her country after observing how many sharks the fishers catch. Alifa built relationships with the fishers and formed her own citizen science project that had volunteers work with fishers at various sites along the coastline.
