Marine Protected Areas Success Stories: The Incredible Recovery of Cabo Pulmo National Park!
🌊 Cabo Pulmo National Park (Mexico) marine ecosystem recovered after decades of pollution and overfishing, thanks to the creation of a marine protected area (MPA).
🐠The recovery of Cabo Pulmo proves that MPAs can be successful for marine life and people if they are well placed, fully protected and community driven. Case studies world-wide, like this one, demonstrate that MPAs help to safeguard biodiversity, increase biomass, bolster fisheries, and protect ocean habitat. Research indicates that, on average, biomass is 670% greater than in adjacent unprotected areas, and 343% greater than in partially-protected MPAs.
🤝 Pacific Wild is supporting the protection of 30% of Canadian oceans by 2030 thanks to the timely implementation of a network of MPAs in the Great Bear Sea.
