The peak for shark activity along the waters off Massachusetts begins in August, but the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy began its summer research examining them Wednesday.

In partnerships with the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries, the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy began its 2020 shark research by tagging three white sharks off of Monomoy. The sharks were circling a whale carcass when they were tagged.

In previous years, researchers were only on the water about twice a week. Now, boats are out at least five times a week leading to more sightings.

We are off to an early tagging start in 2020.

Those three sharks tagged ,would be new ,and not previously tagged.
Untagged sharks would greatly outnumber tagged sharks.

A Boston TV station reports seeing Wednesday a large whit shark on the Boston side of Cape Cod.

These white sharks will more than likely be here until Christmas.

Cape Cod like the rest of Massachusetts is basically in a lockdown, and no breakfast restaurants are open for a sit-down meal.
The Cape will take it on he chin this 2020 season economically. -Tom

Ironically I’ve got relatives on the Cape and Martha’s Vineyard.

We had an email chat on the subject of opening up to enable restaurants and hotels to stay in business.

They still have the lockdown mentality — sad and will certainly be crippling to the economies.

You can take a horse to water... Mass Dems. Some of the most stubborn you will ever find.
