<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size:14.0pt;line-height:106%;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:#6D6D6D;background:white">White sharks have been returning to the Gulf of Maine in greater numbers in response to the regional recovery of seal
populations. For more than a decade. the MA Division of Marine Fisheries and collaborators have been studying the ecology, behavior, and natural history of white sharks off the east coast of the US. Using state-of-the-art tagging technology, the focus of
their current research has been to gain a better understanding of where, when, and how white sharks hunt their prey. This presentation will highlight this research as we attempt to develop a science-based strategy for mitigating potential shark and human
conflicts.</span><o:p></o:p></b></p>
