First step in data analysis: Compile list and locations of arms lost while tagging.

They have had a good safety record of tagging sharks.
One of he contributing factors is the cost of the tags encourages you to make a good shot while tagging, and not lose the tag. -Tom

As I’ve said before, the “GW TAGGERS” should ask for DONATIONS from other “shark freaks” like me. = To paraphrase a Bible verse: Those who ask NOT, neither do they receive.

FYI, there are a GREAT MANY of us “shark lunatics” out here in the USA & elsewhere in the World, who would HELP pay for a greatly expanded tagging program, if we were asked (even a little) politely. = We learn a little bit of “NEW STUFF” from every shark that is tagged/monitored.
