The Cape Eleuthera Institute has recently begun an assessment of the economic value of sharks and rays in The Bahamas. The study is aiming to update a previous assessment of the tourism value of shark diving, as well as expand the assessment to be more comprehensive of other sectors that receive broad economic benefits from sharks, such as the Film and Television sector, NGOs working on education and outreach, non-dive related tourism, as well as research institutions that benefit from shark populations in the area.

Studies like these, showing the dollar value of live sharks, have gone a long way towards supporting protections for sharks in the Bahamas, as well as other parts of the world. The survey will take less than 10 minutes to complete and your answers remain anonymous. If you have gone to the Bahamas for diving, even if not specifically for sharks, your input can help the study. Please take a few minutes to fill out the survey:
