Manta Trust

The Manta Trust was formed in 2011 to co-ordinate global research and conservation efforts for manta rays, their close relatives and their habitat. The Trust brings together a number of projects from around the globe, both new and long-standing, including the Republic of Maldives, Sri Lanka, Mexico and Indonesia. They conduct studies into manta populations in these locations, thus providing the information needed by Governments, NGO’s and conservationists can make decisions to ensure the long term survival of these animals and their habitat.
