OLDER THAN TREES

James Lea grew up dreaming of sharks; enig-
matic monsters of the deep. In his first few
years as a field biologist he fell in love with
silky sharks in the Red Sea, where he got to
interact with them and learn their individual
personalities. But, in the space of just a few
years he watched as almost each and every
animal he had got to know was lost to the
shark fin trade. Feeling heartbroken and help-
less, James resolved to use his expertise as
a scientist to protect sharks in places where
they still have a chance to thrive.
