«Dos áreas marinas del litoral de la Región de Murcia cuentan desde este martes con un reconocimiento internacional muy difícil de conseguir. La Unión Internacional para la Conservación de la Naturaleza (IUCN) ha declarado zona de gran interés para la conservación de tiburones y rayas los montes submarinos del Seco de Palos, ubicado frente a la costa de Cabo de Palos, y la franja litoral entre San Pedro del Pinatar. Ambas áreas pasan a ser zonas ISRA, de especial protección para estas especies, tras la revisión de un centenar de propuestas que se han realizado a la organización internacional en toda la costa del mar Mediterráneo.

Este reconocimiento pone en el mapa a ambas áreas marinas por su gran biodiversidad y empuja a las administraciones a garantizar su protección. Ambos enclaves reúnen hasta 31 especies de tiburones y rayas que se han observado de forma puntual o con una mayor presencia en estas aguas. Este éxito ha sido logrado por un grupo de investigadores del departamento de Ecología de la Universidad de Murcia (UMU), el Centro de Investigación Marina de Santa Pola de la Universidad de Alicante, el Instituto Español de Oceanografía (IEO-CSIC) y el instituto de investigación Cartagena Oceanographic Research Institute (CORI).»
