These baby sharks have passed their first blood test after which a more specific and complete diet is created by their keepers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/n9CAlGyP_b4?showinfo=0\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Even so, the baby sharks begin to make preference for hake and squid while they find themselves in a habitat perfectly adapted to their needs including in recreating a natural light during the day and a dim moonlight at night. Even the temperature of the water is maintained at a certain level based on the season of the year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">These four baby sandbar sharks, just like the other representatives of their species, are true ambassadors for the protection of their own species in the oceans and the seas. These animals are in an elevated risk due the damaging human activities. As is known, the continued exploitation of the natural resources puts at risk many species of animals, among them sharks that are now facing extinction after having habituated our planet for over 400 million years.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Every year more than 100 million sharks are caught and killed at sea. According to the data from World Health Organization (WHO), each year about 600.000 tons of sharks are thrown away as a useless product. Currently, 11 species already appear on the International Red List of Endangered Species, among them the sandbar shark.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Therefore, Loro Parque together with Loro Parque Fundaci\u00f3n puts forth the efforts to raise awareness about the importance of the responsible and sustainable use of natural resources and conservation of the biodiversity among more than million visitors that come to Loro Parque every year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Loro Parque is happy to celebrate the perfect health and size of the sandbar sharks,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1703],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.5 (Yoast SEO v22.5) -
