-'''Overfishing drives over one-third of all sharks and rays toward a global extinction crisis''' is a study published in Current Biology highlights a significant threat to chondrichthyan fish species, including sharks, rays, and chimeras. The research, led by a team of scientists including Nicholas K. Dulvy and Colin A. Simpfendorfer, presents the first global reassessment of 1,199 species in Class Chondrichthyes.
+'''Overfishing drives over one-third of all sharks and rays toward a global extinction crisis''' is a study published in Current Biology that highlights a significant threat to chondrichthyan fish species, including sharks, rays, and chimeras. The research, led by a team of scientists including Nicholas K. Dulvy and Colin A. Simpfendorfer, presents the first global reassessment of 1,199 species in Class Chondrichthyes.
 The study reveals that over one-third (32.6%) of chondrichthyan species are now threatened with extinction, representing an alarming increase from the 2014 assessment's 24%. The threat extends to 391 species, with 180 classified as Vulnerable, 121 as Endangered, and 90 as Critically Endangered.
