The Action Plan for Australian Sharks 2020 is the first action plan for Australia's chondrichthyan fishes (sharks, rays, and chimaeras). This book presents the IUCN Red List status of all 329 species occurring in Australian waters including Subantarctic ad Antarctic waters. The majority of the fauna is secure, although roughly one in eight species is threatened with extinction. The Action Plan presents specific actions required to address knowledge gaps, and outlines conservation actions for each species. This book is a call to action to secure all of Australia's sharks, rays, and chimaeras.
