With the help of local and international marine experts,
WWF has selected ten local marine species, ourso-called "Ocean's 10", to educate the public about
this less well-profiled aspect of Hong Kong's heritage.
Each of the ten has its own unique story to tell, and
between them they represent an array of biodiversity
and marine habitats. Collectively, they also highlight
several different conservation issues for which public
awareness is paramount. We believe that
conservation begins with understanding.
Through this 'Ocean's 10' website, WWF hopes that
the threats to these and many other marine species,
along with positive steps that can be taken to protect and enhance their
survival, can be drawn to the attention of the people of Hong Kong.
