Giant manta rays, severely impacted by commercial overfishing and bycatch, were listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) in 2018. Extensive research and recovery efforts are now underway to protect them.

The ESA has been crucial in safeguarding marine animals. We're highlighting five species it helped protect. Join us in defending this landmark law and vulnerable species by visiting https://oceana.ly/ESA.

Join the AskNature Hive for a conversation with Andrés Mitnik, CEO of Strong by Form. His company, a 2022 Ray of Hope Accelerator participant, developed Woodflow®, a patented technology that mimics tree growth. This process combines computational design with robotic manufacturing to create lightweight, structurally optimized wood-based composites for architecture, furniture, and mobility.

Andrés will provide a behind-the-scenes look at their design and production, highlight real-world applications, and share how biomimicry guides their success in developing smarter, sustainable solutions.
