WEPA Expedition – Socorro 2015 from WEPA on Vimeo.
The “Socorro 2015” project aims to involve, for the first time, photographers from Romania, into an international expedition of underwater photography. Images taken in this trip will be donated to Manta Pacific Research Group, an association which protects the marine species through monitoring and identifying specimens of sea devils (Manta Biostris), in the concerned area.
Photographic identification work is carried out for more than 30 years by the association and by now, only 464 sea devils (Manta Biostris) specimens are known. Out of these, only 160 were seen several times in the reserve area. All these specimens were identified through the activities of volunteer photographers.
