Meet Cristina, the Shark Hero! 

In a world where conservation heroes often go unnoticed, Cristina is making a big splash by saving sharks, one hook at a time.  Over the course of her incredible work, she’s removed over 300 hooks from sharks’ mouths — giving them the chance to survive and thrive in the wild!

Sharks, often misunderstood and feared, are frequent victims of fishing accidents, with hooks lodged in their mouths causing immense pain and distress. But thanks to Cristina’s tireless dedication, these apex predators are getting a second chance at life.

Her work is about more than just rescuing; it’s about raising awareness of the dangers sharks face and educating the world on why these creatures need our protection, not our fear. Through her efforts, Cristina is reminding us all that sharks play a crucial role in our ocean’s ecosystem, and they deserve respect and conservation.

Fun Fact: Removing a hook from a shark’s mouth is no small feat. It takes skill, patience, and a deep love for marine life. Cristina’s bravery, perseverance, and compassion are a true testament to the impact one person can make in the fight for ocean conservation.

Let’s celebrate Cristina’s incredible work and share the message that sharks deserve our respect, not harm!
