Description
The Mola mola, or commonly known as the Sunfish, faces significant endangerment due to various threats far out in the ocean. As the heaviest bony fish in the world, the Mola mola is particularly vulnerable to collisions with boats and ships, leading to injuries and fatalities.
Climate change also poses a threat to Mola mola populations. Their preferred diet consists of jellyfish, and changes in ocean temperature and currents impact the availability and distribution of these prey species. Pollution, especially plastic debris, is another concern as Mola mola might ingest it, mistaking it for jellyfish.
Conservation efforts are crucial to address the endangerment of Mola mola. Implementing stricter regulations on fishing practices, creating marine protected areas, and raising awareness about the importance of these unique creatures in marine ecosystems are essential steps to ensure their survival.
