Canadian shark research


Following the presentation in class regarding sharks I've put a quick link to the Canadian Shark Research Laboratory headed by Dr. Steven E. Campana. They have been active since 1994 and gather biological data used to give general health and stock assessments of shark populations within Canadian waters. I think it is great that we have this kinda research. Apparently, there are limited and competitive research opportunities. I think this would be really great to get an opportunity to do some of this research for masters work. However, it is not only about being outdoors hunting sharks there is alot of laboratory work involved and that can be tedious but it would still be a great experience.
