In 2004 Biologists Dr.Greg Skomal and John Chisholm, both from the Mass. Division of Marine Fisheries tagged a white shark that got trapped in a lagoon, near Woods Hole Mass.

A few year later in 2009, they both started tagging white sharks off Chatham, MA, Cape Cod.

They got over whelmed with the Federally protected white sharks coming into the ocean side beaches of Cape Cod to eat some of the exploding Federally protected seal population. They ran out of tags and State money.

In 2013 the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy (AWSC) stepped in and paid for the tagging boat, spotter plane, tags, and hydrophone Buoys.

In 2021 there will be a Consortium of a dozen or so white shark organizations in the newly formed white shark Consortium ("Me Too" movement) to capitalize on the many white sharks now in the New England area. -Tom

I know all about sharks from watching the Sharknado movies.

“Ware says that she, too, had a misinformed view of sharks at one time because of growing up watching the film, but a cage-diving trip off of Seal Island in South Africa changed that. It was on that trip, “that I realized what I thought based on ‘Jaws’ was not accurate,””

Oh, that must be why you didn’t leave the metal cage you were in.

[Seruzawa]

” It is often a headline when a shark eats a seal, but when you think about it, what you have is a predator, eating its prey, in its natural habitat.”

Other natural shark prey: Anything swimming in the water. Like, your kids, your wife, you. Thousands of sailors and airmen in WWII. Those poor oppressed sharks. Oh how would we survive if the great whites disappeared? It’s not like there aren’t a couple dozen other shark species who couldn’t fill the niche.

If you are a lawyer, you have nothing to fear. Professional courtesy

[DesertRhino]

They really should make an effort to cull them around popular swimming areas.

[the OlLine Rebel]

They are obviously really bad.

I mean, “Great” White? Bad enough it’s white, but to call it great? None are great!

[bwest]

Those sharks need to check their whiteness.

[Tell It Right]

I wish someone would teach the Dims to quit fearing whites.

[libh8er]

Visited the Farallon Islands a few years back hoping to see Great Whites. There weren’t any unfortunately. Maybe it was off season. The one other area on the Pacific side teeming with Great Whites is Guadalupe Island, Mexico. But it’s a little impractical to visit.

[heavy metal]

staying out of their neighborhood to avoid injuries isn’t fear, it’s common sense...

[nagant]

See, it makes a big difference whether an animal to stupid to tie its shoe kills you because it wanted to kill you or kills you because he thought you were something else.

BS. White sharks eat people. Kill them, and kill the animals they are hunting.

[Puppage]

We’re gunna need a bigger story. (See what I did there?)

[rlmorel]

[ncalburt]

Ms Ware tell that BS to the Brazilian family whose son was killed in
near Ptown beach by a Great white last year .

A narrative means Spin a LIE .

Drop her off the Ptwn coast at night fall .
She will be spun by a few sharks .

How are things in your area going so far this year??
