style='font-size:12.0pt'>On Wednesday, June 23 at </span></font>7:30 pm the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History in Brewster will present <b><i><span
style='font-weight:bold;font-style:italic'>Great White Shark Tagging</span></i></b>
with Dr. Greg Skomal, biologist with the State Division of Marine Fisheries.<br>
<br>
$3/Member; $5/Non-Member. Register with the Museum at 508-896-3867.<br>
<br>
Dr. Skomal’s research in tagging Great White Sharks off Monomoy Island to
track their migratory patterns has been widely reported and has drawn
considerable public interest.<br>
<br>
He will present an exciting program on the pop-up satellite transmitting tagsplaced
on Great White Sharks off Chatham last summer and what the scientific community
is learning about the travels and behavior of this ancient and mythic animal. Cape
Cod’s growing seal population points to continued and greater sightings
of the Great White Shark.<br>
<br>
Dr. Skomal is the author of <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>The Shark
Handbook: The Essential Guide for Understanding the Sharks of the World.<br>
</span></b> <br>
This presentation is a special opportunity to hear about current shark studies
by an international shark expert who cares deeply about the protection of the
marine environment.<br>
