• 2．As a child，Rob Stewart loved the natural world. "He loved everything in the sea，but sharks the most，" said his mother，Sandy Stewart.
     Stewart spent his life studying and photographing sharks and other sea creatures，and creating films.Sadly，he died in 2017 at the age of 37 in a diving（潛水） accident.The accident happened while Stewart was filming Sharkwater Extinction，which members of his crew （工作人員） completed after his death.
     Knowing that about 25% of shark species were endangered and sharks might soon be extinct，Stewart worked hard to raise awareness（意識） of sharks and their key role in nature.Stewart believed that they should be protected against humans and other enemies.He studied how illegal shark finning（割魚鰭）has led to a great fall in the shark population.
