GREAT NORTH MUSEUM: HANCOCK WORKSHOP
28 October 2021
As part of Great North Museum: Hancock's Marine Day, Jane was invited to deliver a drop-in wildlife Biro drawing workshop in Living Planet Gallery. Visitors, including children from age 2 upwards, parents, grandparents and guardians, created drawings of marine species some of which are critically endangered, endangered, vulnerable and near threatened such as the White Shark, Hawksbill Turtle and Galapagos Sea Lion.
Also included to draw in this workshop were some weird and wonderful sea creatures such as the Blue Sea Dragon, Peacock Mantis Shrimp, Pompom Crab, Sea Angel, Shame-faced Crab, Leafy Seadragon, Flamingo Tongue Seasnail, Yeti Crab, Bigfin Squid, Glowing Sucker Octopus, and a new species previously unknown to science, the Stingcat, discovered by Rosa.
WE NEED SHARKS!
Sharks are vital to the health of our oceans and the eco-systems they inhabit, yet around 100 million sharks are killed every year. Sharks are threatened by the global fishing industry, caught for their body parts and as bycatch by aggregating devices or illegal drift nets while fishing for other species, as well as hunting for sport, beach protection programs and pollution. Shark species have declined by 70% over the last 50 years. Every country has a role to play in shark conservation, ensuring ocean sanctuaries are created to protect sharks. Humans are guests in sharks domain yet our respect for and understanding of our hosts is often clouded by folklore and media misrepresentation. Many shark species are drifting towards extinction and we may soon lose these beautiful creatures from our oceans.
Show sharks some love:
- Don't use shark products
- Reduce your seafood consumption
- Recycle and reduce plastic consumption
- Tell others, including on social media, about the threats to sharks
- Donate to shark organisations
