Sharks have long fascinated the public. While popular media has often promoted images of large, aggressive predators, most sharks are not dangerous to people and moreover are a vital part of many healthy ocean ecosystems. Join Teaching Professor Dovi Kacev for an illuminating journey into the Southern California Bight to learn about the sharks that make our offshore region their home.
