🇰🇷 South Korea has expanded its conservation efforts by designating two new #MPAs off Jeju Island. One area specifically safeguards the critical habitat of the endangered Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphin, of which fewer than 120 remain near the island.

New data reveals 125 critical #shark & #ray habitats across the Western Indian Ocean, yet almost ALL fall outside #MPAs.🦈

With 50% of regional species at risk of extinction, we must align policy with science to protect these nurseries🌊

The #BBNJ Agreement entered into force on 17 January, marking a historic turning point for protecting the #HighSeas.

Turning this Treaty into action will depend on reliable, operational ocean knowledge. Copernicus Marine Service data already support ecosystem assessment, #MPAs, and evidence-based decisions on the High Seas.
