• Extinction risk and conservation of the world’s sharks and rays (2013, background): “Notwithstanding the limitations of these biased snapshots, the rapid expansion of fisheries and globalized trade are emerging as the principal drivers of coastal and ocean threat (Polidoro et al., 2008; Anderson et al., 2011b; McClenachan et al., 2012).”
• Conservation and management of ornamental coral reef wildlife: Successes, shortcomings, and future directions (2014, background): “The small number of listed species may not be indicative of the status of trade species, since few species in the coral reef wildlife trade have ever been evaluated for extinction risk by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature or CITES authorities (McClenachan et al., 2011), includin”
• From archives to conservation: why historical data are needed to set baselines for marine animals and ecosystems (2012, background): “These assessments are frequently bedeviled by a lack of data, hindering the management of species from small invertebrates to large charismatic species such as sharks (McClenachan et al. 2012).”
• Philopatry and Regional Connectivity of the Great Hammerhead Shark, Sphyrna mokarran in the U.S. and Bahamas (2017, unknown): “These difficulties are exacerbated for large marine vertebrates that move long distances, live in concealing environments, are logistically difficult to capture and as upper-trophic predators, are naturally low in abundance (McClenachan et al., 2012; Dulvy et al., 2014).”
• Ghosts of the coast: global extinction risk and conservation of sawfishes (2016, background): “Emerging knowledge suggests that the timing, patterns, and processes of marine extinction are very different to that on land (Hoffmann et al., 2010; Harnik et al., 2012; McClenachan et al., 2012; Pimm et al., 2014).”
• Fish conservation in freshwater and marine realms: status, threats and management (2016, background): “Since then there has been one additional thematic summary of the status of some of the most charismatic marine organisms (McClenachan et al., 2012).”
• Filling historical data gaps to foster solutions in marine conservation (2015, background): “McClenachan et al. (2012b) documented a link between data and conservation action for marine species; less charismatic groups of species have greater data deficiencies, whichmay be perceived as a lack of risk and can translate to a lack of conservation action.”
