Its #YeOldeAnimals Friday! Today's a 1539 shark & ray!
This is a very early shark depiction where 4 sharks seem to be trying to eat a man. Thankfully, there's a ray to the rescue with an awesome mermaid tail! Strange & fascinating!

It’s the middle of the week which means it’s #WedgefishWednesday !!! As you may know, last week 16 species of #RhinoRays (wedgefish & giant guitarfish) were listed on #CITES Appendix II. This included the whitespotted wedgefish (Rhynchobatus australiae) pictured below #hooray4rays
#Hooray4rays Today is international sawfish day. Will White, Colin Simpfendorfer, Andrew Chin 🐀 #ratified and Peter Kyne and I are currently investigating the status of sawfish populations in Papua New Guinea. Follow us PNGSharks&Rays to keep up to date! #intlsawfishday
And a reminder that this is not the last you will hear from the Global FinPrint team. The work goes on. Rays (like this frustrated eagle ray) were also an important part of this work and there is lots more to come on them...
