Our children’s book on sawfish is now finally available online at sawfishbook.org This book aims to change attitudes and perceptions of sawfishes in Papua New Guinea by reaching the next generation of fishers!

Following the incidental introduction of tilapia, fishers and market vendors in PNG's Kikori River see tilapia as an easily caught and sellable fish with high palatability compared to native species. Time will tell if these perceptions are up held link.springer.com/article/10.100…

🚨📦🐟Today is a milestone for me as over the last week I've published my 1st, 2nd and 3rd R packages on CRAN! Thanks to everyone who has used them so far and pushed me to publish them properly. Details on each of them are down below. 1/n

Project leader John Mohan proposes an alternative approach to understanding elasmobranch life history, by using natural chemical tags. From a shark's mineralised vertebrae we can understand where a shark has travelled and how it's moved during its life. saveourseas.com/update/shark-a…


Thanks to @SynchEarth & @saveourseas, PNG sawfish conservation efforts are ramping up. Along with our children's book sawfishbook.org, we're handing out shirts and hats. Aiming to create awareness and start a dialogue with fishers... their actions could prevent extinction
