Marine Conservation Action Fund Fellow Daniel Fernando discusses the problem of how Devil Rays have been facing increasing threats driven by unsustainable target and bycatch fisheries, seeking to supply the international demand for their dried gill plates in Chinese medicine. Growing awareness and concern for the survival of these species resulted in some level of international protection. However, further work is required.
