Metavee Chuangcharoendee, 27, a team member of the Maya Shark Watch Project, flies a drone searching for sharks with her teammates Paphassawan Sunthornkel, 33, and Nuch Natwarachawisut, 29, in Maya Bay at the Phi Phi Island National Park, on Phi Phi Leh Island, Krabi province, Thailand February 24, 2023. With the number of sharks in Maya Bay already dwindling, authorities and conservationists are intent on keeping tourists from swimming in the bay and driving away the baby sharks, which hide in the shallows and coral reefs from the cannibalistic adults. "We are hoping that with the restrictions in place, we can mitigate the disturbance to (the sharks). We are doing this research in hopes that we can find the best way to manage and the best way for tourism and the environment to coexist," Metavee said.
