Giant Rays of Hope: Protecting Manta Rays to Safeguard the Sea

Manta rays are a flagship species, and they need our help. When people help these gentle giants, the whole ocean ecosystem benefits. Kerstin Forsberg started the organization Planeta OcÄano to change the way ocean conservation projects are done in Peru, and she championed manta rays. She visited schools and also talked with local fishers about the dangers of overfishing. Thanks to the help of local teachers, students, and fishers, Kerstin launched a project to identify and track oceanic manta rays and protect them, making the ocean a better place for all creatures.
