Achieving the UN SD Goals requires conservation of keystone marine species. As top predators, many sharks play a crucial role in balancing ecosystems; yet, they have been experiencing severe population declines. Overfishing is indisputably main threat to shark populations, but little known about impact non-extractive human pressure. This study tests effect varied presence on behavior at an insular reserve. In 2020, humans were virtually absent from Fernando de Noronha (FEN), Brazil, during 211-days lockdown period prompted by COVID-19 pandemics. A local tracking program rendered nearly 280000 acoustic detections coastal waters 2016 through 2021. Lemon sharks, Negaprion brevirostris, showed 43% increase detection rate which was ascribed concomitant decrease presence. contrast, tiger Galeocerdo cuvier, decreased 67% lockdown, this trend likely related seasonality behavior. After both species' rates tended return previous levels. Further, lemon increased diurnal residency and made more use areas less restrictive whilst nocturnal after period. Contrasting trends might relate with completing their life cycle FEN being migrants arriving older ages exposed anthropogenic stimuli across ontogeny. demonstrates that disturbance can induce significant changes way predators explore habitats for accomplishing trophic, reproductive, ontogenetic functions. Ascertaining ecological impacts marine-based development should thus consider cryptic responses megafauna landscape produced ever-growing population.

But natural climatic changes, as well various man-made anthropogenic factors, not only emit greenhouse gases into the atmosphere resulting in global warming but influence ecosystems earth. The aquatic one such example where dolphin, with complex behaviour, recognized most intelligent members. hydrodynamic body system speeds up underwater and SONAR communication technology helps dolphins to work an efficient health indicator. human activities, including poaching fishing, creating noise pollution undesirable infrastructures producing debris from their generated wastes obstruct proper functioning these systems ultimately contribute habitat loss. So, dolphins’ ( Gangetic ones India) disappearance comfortable living zone was inevitable observed past few decades they migrated areas more favourable conditions. available information related rejuvenation qualities water restoration dolphin’s during COVID pandemic confirmed absence negative impact activities on ecosystem. Hence, identification important steps be implemented by concerned authorities post-COVID situation maintenance common people necessary balance biodiversity long run, keeping country’s developmental operational. This review article endeavour towards that direction.
