And most importantly, thanks to @iucnshark.bsky.social and @elasmoproject.bsky.social for making this happen almost 20 years after this was done the first time (www.iucnssg.org/uploads/5/4/...). It shows just how much work has been done on sharks and their relatives in that period.

The IUCN SSC SSG was established to respond to growing awareness and concern of the severe impact of fisheries on shark, ray, and chimaera populations globally. The SSG is recognized as the leading authority on the status of these species, using science to support actions for conservation.
