We are in mid-December and the white shar biologists are now going through the information gathered during the white shark summer and Fall season.

The weather has closed them down even though a few white sharks remain in this area.

We will have to wait for late May or early June for white sharks to come back to Cape Cod. -Tom

Shark Cameras...The next best thing to lasers. ;)

There is just so much we can learn from Great White Sharks.

Their research on Covid is amazing.

[Capt. Tom]

The shark season is just about over, and the biologists will be working on the information gathered this winter.

Information gathering will start up again when the white sharks show up on Cape Cod in this coming end of May or June. -Tom

But this resting behavior was something entirely unexpected. [Megan] said her mind started racing to other datasets collected during conventional acoustic tagging...

And my mind started racing about what fun Megan must be on a date. Imagine the conversation turning to her excitement about sharks resting on the ocean floor with seal guts hanging from their gills. I wouldn't be able to contain myself!

[Alas Babylon!]

My only concern with this technology...

What’s to keep the Chinese shark fin soup fishermen from using the ping signal to track and capture the sharks?

IO’m not talking about the caps that pop off, but there is even a real time map (https://www.ocearch.org/tracker/) you can zoom into to find where these tagged sharks are.

We have had a nice fat 15 footer show up here . Probably following calving Humpback whale pods. Knocked the two front teeth out of a surfer it rushed. How’s that for a close call? Dentist Whitey....
