Karl, thanks for the info. This might be bad for tourism, but good for fishermen if enough of them can be wiped out or scared off. Just keep in mind that if you are fishing and see seals up on the beach, don't go in the water. They have been conditioned to get up on shore when there are sharks around.

And the Naushon incident should have taught everyone that you are NOT safe in knee/waist deep water. |

they need 6 inches of water above their total height to Maintain FULL mobility. So theyre still mobile in like no water, just not fully mobile until they get a bit of water above them. |

Rock - right on both counts.
A few years back there was one summer where an immature bald eagle (protected) up at Race Point learned how to tear the plover (protected) enclosures apart to get at the tasty chicks inside. Rumor was that Audobon had video. That must have broke their hearts.

If any of you guys know Captain Lenny Mofo, he's a flats guide down in the Lower Keys around Big Pine Key ... he was out fishing when he saw a tiger shark come up to a sand bar, it was trapped in a small pool and it shimmied over the sand bar on its pectoral fins and back into the channel on the other side ... that's pretty freaky.
