To give bike frames their structural strength manufacturers employ a variety of unidirectional carbon fiber prepreg sheets. Each sheet is designated by the fiber orientation as being either a 0Â°, a plus 45Â°, a minus 45Â°, and/or a plus or minus 30Â°.
Sawfish are shark-like rays characterized by long, tooth-studded snouts. Individuals range in size from 2 to 20 feet and can weigh more than 1,000 pounds. Like most sharks and rays, sawfish are exceptionally vulnerable to overexploitation due to their slow growth, late maturity, and small number of young. All seven species worldwide are classified by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as Critically Endangered.
Morays are fished, but are not considered endangered. This is due in no small part to their toxicity. Ciguatoxin, the main toxin of ciguatera, is produced by a toxic dinoflagellate and accumulated up through the food chain, of which moray eels are top, making them dangerous for humans to eat.
