With the white shark population increasing due to successful conservation and management, increased shark activity along the CA coastline has raised public safety concerns. The CSULB Shark Lab has been studying white sharks for almost 20 years and in 2018 formed the CA Shark Beach Safety Program with funding from the California State legislature. New research has focused on population dynamics and behavior, particularly for juveniles that use coastal beach habitats as nursery. Research findings are dispersed to stakeholders (e.g., lifeguards, Harbor patrol, general public, K-12 schools) via large education and outreach program. Come learn about what we’ve discovered and how we’re learning how to live with white sharks off California.
