The Caribbean reef shark is a pivotal species in ocean ecosystems and currently faces several risks that threaten its existence. These sharks have suffered a significant population decline, estimated between 50–79% over the past three decades, mainly due to habitat degradation and overfishing. Protection efforts are underway, with increased measures being sought at international conventions. Marine protected areas and initiatives like the Yarari Marine Mammal and Shark Sanctuary, as well as the International Shark Strategy adopted by the Dutch government, are critical steps towards safeguarding the future of these sharks.
