Read MoreResearch Measures Views on Seals and Sharks
Newly released research results highlight striking differences and some similarities in the way visitors, voters, and commercial fishermen view seals and white sharks on Cape Cod. The findings of the Woods Hole Sea Grant-funded project can help advance marine conservation, promote responsible stewardship, and foster co-existence. From June to September 2021, representative samples of Cape…
