Big News! One year ago today (July 13, 2015), beach-goers, Chatham Harbormasters Stuart Smith and Jason Holm, Atlantic White Shark Conservancy and Dr. Greg Skomal of the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries were part of a rescue effort to save a white shark that stranded on a beach in Chatham, MA. Prior to being revived and released, Dr. Skomal tagged the shark.
We are incredibly excited to announce that the rescued white shark ‘Jamison’ has returned to Cape Cod! He was detected on a receiver off Monomoy National Wildlife Refuge on June 29, 2016. Stay tuned for updates on Jamison throughout the season!

The great white shark beached itself in Chatham last year; it was pulled back into the ocean by a shark expert and the town’s harbormaster. Over this weekend, a 6-year-old boy out fishing actually hooked a great white shark in Cape Cod Bay ; the shark was cut free. Three more great whites were spotted on the eastern edge of the Cape.
