Title: Indonesia is taking one large step forward in protecting its wildlife Written by: duddy on Mar 16, 2014 (https://biology-forums.com/gallery/47/4_16_03_14_12_52_16.jpeg) (https://biology-forums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=15671) In recognition of the manta ray and the crucial role it plays in the world's oceans, Indonesia has declared the world's biggest manta ray sanctuary. For the first time, manta ray hunting and export is banned within the entire 3 million square kilometre area of Indonesia’s exclusive economic zone. Comments: Wow, that's embarrassing - the current Australian Regime considers Indonesia a backward 3rd-world country while at the same time opening up world heritage areas to wood-chipping , allowing dredging and toxic waste disposal in the Great Barrier Reef and removing Marine Parks.
