🦈 Heading to Sharks International 2026? Consider applying to our session: 🎯 Quantifying the Chase: New Frontiers in Predator–Prey Dynamics We’re exploring tools, techniques & cross-disciplinary insights. 🌐 si2026.org @sharks-int.bsky.social #SharksInternational2026 #SharkScience #MarineEcology

🦈 NEW PAPER: Our long-term imagery from Central CA white shark sites reveals extensive injuries & scars. What causes these wounds? We developed a classification system to categorize injury patterns. 📖 www.frontiersin.org/journals/mar...

🚨NEW PAPER🚨 We used acoustic telemetry to track 355 white sharks over a 15 year period in California, describing differences in seasonal trends among demographic groups. DM if you need a copy, and huge thanks to all collaborators - it took a village! www.publish.csiro.au/WR/WR24136

Inspired by @whysharksmatter.bsky.social wish to flood Bluesky with Science 🧪 and overwhelm @altmetric.com, instead of sharing your own paper, Refer a Friend! Quote or reply to this post with a link to a friend's paper that you love, cite, and/or wish you had written, and explain why you like it.

I love this paper by @sammy-shark.bsky.social et al. Shark vertical movements are fascinating to me, and this paper makes the most of a cool high resolution dataset from an ecophysiology perspective. 🦑 🧪 🦈 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Hi Bluesky! I'm Sammy and according to my research to date, I'm a big fan of movement and sharks. What scholargoggler.com doesn't tell you is that I also love to surf, hike, drink wine with friends, and generally be outside.
