On this day 21 yrs ago, our efforts to free the Naushon white shark continue. The shark moved north of the Nonamessett Rd bridge giving us hope she’d exit thru Hadley’s Harbor. This is one of my favorite photos because it sums up the whole situation in one frame.

New 🦈 Paper! Dusky sharks actively prey on gray seals. link.springer.com/article/10.1... (🎥=David Schumacher)

White sharks have historically always been found off Maine. 65 years ago, on August 10, 1960, Harry Goodridge harpooned a 12' white shark off Rockport that had just eaten his pet harbor seal Basil. After towing it to shore, he found Basil in 3 pieces inside the shark. 🦈

A friendly reminder, not all ‘fins’ are what they appear to be. The head of a gray seal resting on the surface can resemble the profile of a dorsal fin. This has resulted in a growing number of mistaken identity reports.🦭🦈

#SharkAwarenessDay 🦈 fact: there are other sharks off MA besides white sharks. These 3 species are often encountered by fishermen and called ‘sand sharks.’ It’s important to know the difference because, unlike the spiny & smooth dogfish, sand tigers are prohibited.

Fisherman on ACK being bitten by a Sandbar shark he was releasing. It’s important to remember, fisherman catch & release these sharks every day without incident, and this case is just a freak accident due to fisherman getting himself in a compromising position. 🦈 www.instagram.com/reel/DL0Hibz...

Happy Canada Day to all my friends and family in the #GreatWhiteNorth! 🦈Last year international traveler ‘LeeBeth’ was touring the Maritimes on this day. We’ve already had multiple white shark reports in the region this year. You can view as well as report sightings on the #Sharktivity app.

With hot weather forecast for this week lots of you will be headed to the beach so here’s a reminder that white sharks are here. Be #SharkSmart and review shark safety recommendations before you hit the waves (www.nps.gov/caco/planyou...). Please spread the word! 🦈

I knew this card was going to get me in the feels as soon as I opened the envelope. 🥹 #HappyFathersDay! #sharksnearme 🦈

Here’s white shark ‘Padre’ wishing all the Dads out there #HappyFathersDay! 🦈

Happy #WorldOceansDay! It always amazes me when I meet someone that hasn’t seen the Ocean but many people around the world are landlocked. Although they may never see it they are still impacted by it everyday. So here’s a limerick I came up with to remind everyone a healthy 🌊 = healthy 🌎

On the anniversary of #DDay remember the bravery & heroism of the troops who sacrificed so much to change the course of history. They were soldiers but they were also people just like us, including a guy who liked sharks. We’re honored to name a white shark ‘Web’ after David Kenyon Webster. 🦈

No white sharks spotted today but plenty of shark food. Seals were spread out all along the coast with the biggest haulouts off Monomoy. Also had several basking sharks including this big one off Peaked Hill.🦭🦈

My latest acquisition to celebrate the 50th anniversary of JAWS. 🦈 #sharksnearme

Red foxes had squirrel for suppah. The coyote had something else in its sights. 🦊

It was a beautiful day to look for sharks but alas, I couldn’t find any. I had to settle for watching these 3 little goofballs and their entertaining antics. 🦊

Time lapse video of today’s basking shark necropsy led by @shellspc.bsky.social. Three hours of work condensed into just over a minute. 🦈

This basking shark may look like it’s smiling but sadly, it is not. This poor individual stranded on a beach along Cape Cod Bay. There are a lot of baskos around this year and unfortunately some strand. 🦈

Chilly wind, choppy seas and changing sky gives the morning a very Fall-like feeling.

Friends, I am seeking a historian in either Irish or Scottish lore specialized in leviathans, basking sharks, or any other marine creatures.

This is the kind of morning commute I don’t mind. Basking shark traffic jam! 🦈

A few weeks ago I was sitting in this exact spot watching right whales and this morning I’m watching basking sharks. Cape Cod Bay is full of basking sharks right now so if you head to the beach to enjoy this beautiful day keep your 👀 out, you have a good chance of seeing one. 🦈

Both white sharks and basking sharks are off Massachusetts now. Here’s a cheat sheet on how to tell them apart. Remember, if you see a white shark please use the #sharktivity app to report it. 🦈

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there! 'Curly' is the largest white shark tagged in the Atlantic to date. She's one big mother 🦈. You can see her in the Shark Week episode ‘Jaws Comes Home’.

Today marks the 55th anniversary of 'The Goal' scored by Bobby Orr to help the Boston Bruins win the #StanleyCup, May 10, 1970. Ray Lussier captured the memorable moment on film so when we found a white shark with unique markings resembling that iconic photo we had to name it #BobbyOrr. 🏒🦈

After a day of watching basking sharks in Cape Cod Bay,time to kick back and enjoy #JAWS at the Boston Pops! 🦈

Multiple reports of basking sharks off Plymouth this morning. Thanks to Lisa & Mark for alerting me. Here’s a few different sharks close to the beach. Mark and I counted at least 5 and Lisa had another group off Manomet. If you see a shark remember to be a #citizenscientist and please report it! 🦈

Another episode of things I see through the windshield of my truck. Can anyone guess what it is?

A message from White Shark 'Kenobi'. 🦈#HappyStarWarsDay #Maythe4thbewithyou

22 yrs ago today New Hampshire's 'Old Man of the Mountain' collapsed. The famous profile lives on in the dorsal fin of one of the white sharks identified off Cape Cod in 2015 which was appropriately named after the iconic rock formation. Can you see the resemblance? 🦈

🦈 season is here! www.bostonherald.com/2025/05/02/c...

It’s that time of year, shark season is upon us! Now would be a good time to brush up on your ID skills. This video will help you distinguish between white sharks and basking sharks. Remember if you see a shark please use the #Sharktivity app to report it. youtu.be/kWRuFWuz7NA?...

Only 239 more days until Christmas and it’s looking like some JAWSome offerings are in store this year. Hallmark just released the 2025 Dream Book and there’s a JAWS sign ornament to celebrate the the 50th anniversary as well as a SharkWeek white shark ornament. #sharksnearme

DId you know that marine biologists around the world get their baskets delivered by the Easter Rabbit Fish? They also hunt for eggcases. #HappyEaster

Herring are running and the predators that eat them will be here next. Are you ready for #sharkseason? 🐟>🐠>🦈

Good morning for sunrise with cetaceans! ☀️🐳 If you’re looking for Right Whales today, Sandwich is the place to be. If you watch my video you can see all their heads shining in the sun as they feed. This was shot from the canal so you can still catch a glimpse from there

Right Whales face a lot of challenges including ship strikes. Watching them hanging out in a high traffic area like the east end of the Cape Cod Canal really drives home the risk.

Thar she blows! One way you can tell a Right Whale from other species is the V-shaped spout. If they really like you they send up a 💙! 😁
