Many shark species are in danger of extinction, such as zebra sharks.<\/p>\n

At Loro Parque we promote reproduction under human care. A process that significantly increases the survival rate of the offspring and ensures the conservation of seriously endangered species.<\/p>\n

At Loro Parque we collaborate with institutions and research centres to increase the reproduction and knowledge of the sharks. This results in the improvement of the conservation capacity in wild habitats.<\/p>\n

Another way in which we support the conservation of sharks and their habitats is through Loro Parque Fundaci\u00f3n.
