According to the PSA above, shark-related tourism brings in 78 million dollars (presumably BSD) to the Bahamian economy. The PSA also stresses the importance of sharks within the marine ecosystem.

A second similarly-themed PSA, also featuring Bahamian children, focuses on the shark trade and global statistics regarding shark populations.
