Doing Business Information Sheets Filling the gaps in our knowledge The white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) is also known as the great white shark or white pointer. It is a large, powerful and superbly adapted predator that occurs worldwide but is most common in temperate waters. Despite its notoriety, scientists have only recently been able to start building a profile of the species including its biology, habits, movement patterns and the vulnerability of populations to targeted or accidental captures. The white shark is, quite simply, a difficult species to study. With initial funding of $100,000 from the Natural Heritage Trust, CSIRO, various State and Federal research and management agencies, and a number of interested groups have now joined forces to collect information about white sharks in Australian waters. The study, begun in 1999, also aims to involve commercial and recreational fishers as well as others who spend time on the water and who may sometimes see white sharks. The information collected by the project will enable more informed decision-making on white shark conservation management in Australia. Introduction White sharks are close relatives of mako and porbeagle sharks and are classified in the shark family Lamnidae. Australia is renowned to be one of the best places in the world to see white sharks, however, even in our waters they are still relatively uncommon. They occur in southern Australian waters from southern Queensland to north-west Western Australia. White sharks are primarily a coastal species and often enter very shallow water in search of prey. They are a distinctive species: torpedo-shaped with a pointed snout; large pectoral and first dorsal fins; a crescent-shaped tail; a large black eye; large triangular serrated teeth; and are grey or bronze-coloured on top and white below.

To my fellow anglers, and others interested in sharks.
Most fishermen, whether they are fishing for smelt, tuna, eels, marlin, stripers, sharks etc. usually have only two questions. 1. Where do I go to catch them? 2. What do I use for equipment?
Well, I think it's about time you learned something about the species themselves for a change. That's what this shark website is about. Please read it and don't just look at pictures.

148. Tiger Shark Research, Hawaii Tiger Shark Research, Hawaii Shark Research, Galeoc
This site relates to scientific research aimed at increasing understanding of tiger sharks. Major goals of this research include determining movement patterns and habitat use of these predators.
http://www2.hawaii.edu/~carlm/tigershark.html
TIGER SHARK RESEARCH PROGRAM
A project funded jointly by the Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources and Sea Grant
The tiger shark, Galeocerdo cuvier Tiger sharks are captured by setting lines baited with fish market scraps, at dusk, just off Honolulu harbour. Lines are recovered at dawn the following day. Sharks caught are secured alongside a small boat, identified, measured and sexed, and a tissue sample is removed for genetic fingerprinting. Each shark receives a numbered identification tag and those smaller than 10ft are immediately released. Larger tiger sharks are fitted with acoustic transmitters (devices which emit ultrasonic beeps). These beeps are beyond the hearing range of both sharks and humans but are detectable with a hydrophone (underwater microphone). Transmitter equipped sharks can be followed by boat using a hydrophone to continually listen for these beeps. A single 'beer can sized' transmitter is surgically implanted in each sharks peritoneal cavity (the space containing the liver and other organs). During this operation the shark is turned upside down and immediately goes into tonic immobility (a trance-like state lasting approximately twenty minutes). An incision is made in the peritoneal wall, the transmitter is inserted and the incision sutured closed. The shark is released and followed for several days. Data obtained by tracking with boats is supplemented by using bottom monitors placed at different locations on the seabed. Bottom monitors are devices that continually listen for the uniquely frequency coded transmitters carried by larger tiger sharks. Monitors can identify each transmitter equipped shark, and record how long each shark stays in that area. Bottom monitors are regularly retrieved by divers so that recorded data can be recovered.

Genus Carchardon Species carcharias Many people have a big fear of sharks, especially Great Whites. A lot of this comes from movies like Jaws - which is based on a number of attacks that really happened in New Jersey in 1916. Some people think that there are tons of sharks waiting to eat them if they venture out into the ocean, which is simply not true. Sharks rarely ever eat humans and are solitary animals. They either travel alone or in groups of two. This image is from www.eng.utoledo.edu/~lcendere/gw/pics.htm Shark attacks are quite rare, in the US there are two to three non-fatal attacks on swimmers, surfers, and divers per year. By the number of reported incidents, Dogs kill more people each year than Great Whites have killed in the last 100 years. There are lots of divers who swim with sharks and are not attacked. In fact, there are places where you can be guided on a dive with sharks after just one dive lesson. They get used to people and get quite tame. Sharks are misunderstood animals.

You can find information on marine mammals, seabirds and the fishing industry on separate pages from the links below. In the future we will be adding more lists. Please stay tuned. Marine Mammals Seabirds Fishing Industry T he Bay of Fundy waters contain many species of sharks, skates and rays despite the misconception that the waters are too cold for these cartilaginous fish. Many are only spring to fall visitors but some live year-round. Chimaeras, another cartilaginous fish, are rarely reported. Common Sharks: Spiny Dogfish (Squalus acanthias) - The most common shark in the Bay of Fundy, this small schooling shark (70-100cm) is frequently caught during the summer but unfortunately are not usually sold. A processing plant for dogfish was operated at Ingalls Head on Grand Manan for a few years until it caught fire from a lightening strike. The plant was not rebuilt. Spiny dogfish is marketed as "rock shark", "rock cod" or "rock salmon" and is often eaten in Europe and used for English fish and chips. Dogfish are also dissected in science classes and a market for biological supplies exists. It is probably the most written about shark in the world because of the latter, its abundance and the negative effect on commercial fisheries.

Large shark school dissipates off Florida coast
This shark, among hundreds spotted near Tampa, Florida on Tuesday, ventured elsewhere Wednesday. TAMPA, Florida (CNN) Scientists did not spot any sharks Wednesday morning around the place where, one day earlier, hundreds of them were videotaped in shallow waters, leading authorities to warn swimmers to be careful. Sharks frequent the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico, and scientists said such large numbers are not unusual. Still, the large school had prompted authorities to alert swimmers and fishermen Tuesday to possible danger. For two hours Wednesday morning, scientists surveyed the area around Anclote Key, north of Tampa. Working with fishermen who tried to attract sharks using chum, they were unable to spot any sharks, said Sue Ellen Richardson, a spokeswoman for the Florida Aquarium. No sharks were spotted by air.

    The following is an educational contribution by Moss Landing Marine Labs Biologist and Graduate Student (Currently working on shark studies in Mexico) Wade Smith
I've always had a great interest in sharks. As a scuba diving instructor, I've tried to dispel the general public belief that sharks are killing machines. My first shark sighting while snorkeling was a fascinating experience. Since, I have developed a greater curiosity and interest for those beautiful creatures. Most books on sharks are outdated by the time they go to press. For the latest information, I asked my friend Wade Smith a Marine Biologist studying sharks to contribute to our educational goal by writing this section on sharks. Wade and I are working together to provide you the most accurate and interesting facts about sharks. J-Philippe

Introduction
Sharks have long evoked more fear than any other creature. Snakes, crocodiles, and tigers are highly effective predators and dangerous to humans, but they don’t seem to be as universally feared. Sharks move efficiently and swiftly through an environment where humans may struggle or feel awkward. The power of the ocean and the mystery of what cannot be seen beneath its' waves adds to the fear of sharks. In 1865, Thoreau noted, "I have no doubt that one shark in a dozen years is enough to keep up the reputation of a beach a hundred miles long." The reputations and mysteries surrounding sharks far exceeds our understanding of them.

Sharks: Top Predators with a Purpose! The Whale shark (Rhincodon typus) is the largest fish on Earth, possibly reaching 60 feet in length, or about as long as two school buses! This whale shark has a remora riding on it's head. (The remora is a kind of fish that acts like a suction cup, attaching to larger animals to get a free ride). Check out a video clip of a whale shark (2 minutes in length, 4 Mb file size, requires a quicktime viewer).
The shark is a fascinating creature, surrounded by myth and misconception. To many, sharks symbolize the very essence of ruthlessness, representing the ultimate savages of the natural world. Though many people would rather not intentionally socialize with these fearsome predators of the depths, I find it thoroughly captivating to swim among sharks. Sharks and their direct predecessors have been swimming in the world's oceans for well over 300 million years, and were going about their business long before dinosaurs walked the Earth. The fact that sharks have survived for so long without changing very much is a real tribute to the effectiveness of their anatomy. Sharks are fishes, contained within the taxonomic class called Chondrichthyes (meaning "cartilage-fish"). Sharks and other cartilaginous fishes (rays, skates, and ratfishes) differ from the bony fishes in that they have a cartilaginous skeleton, and lack a swim bladder. This class of fishes contains over 600 species worldwide, including over 300 species of sharks.

Better Laws For Jaws:
California Puts Permanent Teeth in State White Shark Protection Press Release by The Center For Marine Conservation
Sacramento, CAThe Center for Marine Conservation (CMC) succeeded in securing permanent protection for California's white sharks on Saturday when Governor Pete Wilson signed Senator Mike Thompson's bill (SB 144) into law prohibiting the deliberate take of white sharks in state waters. This landmark victory in shark protection came about through the efforts of CMC in cooperation with the Point Reyes Bird Observatory and the Pacific Coast Federation of Fishermen's Associations, and was supported by over two dozen conservation, fishing, surfing, and scientific organizations. "This proactive measure ensures needed protection for these magnificent, yet vulnerable animals," said CMC President Roger McManus. This new law repeals the sunset date on a 1993 state law that made intentional taking of white sharks illegal in California waters. Exceptions to the law are made for scientific and educational research and incidental catch in selected net fisheries. Thompson's bill is the lead ship in an unprecedented 'flotilla' of 30 coast and ocean protection bills to become California law. "White shark populations are naturally small, but they play a crucial role in marine ecosystems along the California coast" said Tom Okey, a marine ecologist in CMC's Pacific Regional Office in San Francisco. "These top predators control marine mammal populations and help maintain whole marine ecosystems including commercially important fish populations."
