Description
The blue shark is classified as near threatened by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature. It is believed that 20 million blue shark are fished every year, either intentionally or as bycatch. Their meat is often used as fishmeal, and their skin can be used as a leather substitute. Because of this, the blue shark is unfortunately believed to be on the verge of becoming vulnerable.
