The SSN Fish Working Group encourages countries to propose for CITES listing, fish that are being traded internationally at unsustainable levels. The Working Group offers countries technical expertise to assist in drafting proposals and provides briefing information to Parties in support. To date, the Working Group has successfully lobbied for the listing of the great white shark, whale shark basking shark, Napoleon wrasse and seahorses on CITES Appendix II.
