4Ocean Whale Shark Braided Bracelet

Recent findings on the impact of marine debris on whale sharks paint a grim picture for these slow-moving, filter-feeding sharks. Microplastic is found in their gills, marine debris in their stomachs, and they are exposed to the toxins absorbed by ocean plastic which can alter their hormones and lead to a variety of health and reproductive issues.

Whale sharks' meat, fins, and oil are highly valued in international markets and so despite their endangered status and global conservation efforts they are still overfished, and this is a major ongoing threat to their survival as a population. They are also subject to entanglement in plastic fishing gear and become victims of bycatch.

When you purchase the Whale Shark Braided Bracelet, you’ll pull one pound of trash from the ocean, rivers, and coastlines while raising awareness about the importance of saving these gentle giants. 

Available in two sizes:

Small, to fit wrist size 14.61cm-17.15cm

Medium, to fit wrist size 17.15cm-19.69cm
