«Una investigación de la Unión Internacional para la Conservación de la Naturaleza (IUCN) identificó 65 Áreas Importantes para la supervivencia de tiburones, rayas y quimeras en el Pacífico de América Central y del Sur, desde el Golfo de California en México hasta el sur de Chile…

Tras la identificación de las ISRAS, los 55 científicos de diferentes nacionalidades que colaboraron en esta investigación, construyeron un mapa donde es posible visualizar cada una de ellas. El objetivo es que esta información sea utilizada por los tomadores de decisiones para conservar a este grupo de animales marinos altamente amenazado. Una alternativa es la creación de áreas marinas protegidas. De hecho, algunas de las ISRAS identificadas ya se superponen con parques y reservas marinas. Otra manera es establecer en estas áreas importantes un manejo pesquero sostenible que disminuya el impacto sobre los tiburones, rayas y quimeras.»
