Preliminary recovery of coastal sharks in southeast US
https://www.sciencedaily.com/release...0228185210.htmA new analysis of population trends among coastal sharks of the southeast U.S. shows that all but one of the seven species studied are increasing in abundance. The gains follow enactment of fishing regulations in the early 1990s after decades of declining shark numbers.
The actual study is paywalled, but there is an article at that link. Kind of bugs me that I have to pay for a study funded by our taxes.
I doubt it, but maybe the fact that they have officially noticed that blacktips and spinners are "recovering" might shift the dial for the local folks a bit.
FWIWPeople are shocked to see sharks in the water around here.
If you see natural water taste it. If it's salty it has sharks in it. If it's fresh it has alligators in it. If it's brackish it has both.
