"The Republic of the Congo has created its first ever Marine Protected Areas
(MPAs), supported by a research team including the University of Exeter and the
Wildlife Conservation Society.
The three new MPAs will protect more than 4,000 square km (1,500 square miles)
off the West African coast—covering 12% of Congo's Exclusive Economic Zone.
The area includes globally important nesting grounds for leatherback turtles,
and critical migrating and breeding habitats for marine mammals including
Atlantic humpback whales.
The new MPAs are home to more than 40 species of sharks and rays, including the
world's largest fish, the open ocean whale shark."
