Video of my shark conservation programme in Chonburi province near Bangkok. Bamboo sharks can be found for sale, alive, in some of the local fish markets so I try to find gravid (pregnant) females, place them in quarantine for a few days until they start laying, then release them and their eggs onto shark-depleted reefs. This video shows two gravid females and one male being released into the no-fishing zone administered by Thai navy SEALs in Samaesan. It's pretty rare to have the opportunity of diving on an unifished reef and always exciting to see the size and variety of local fish!
