In 1969 PRBO biologists working on the Farallon Islands saw a large shark kill and eat a Steller's Sea Lion. At the time, they had no idea what kind of shark was involved. Today, the Farallones are recognized as one of the best places in the world to study Great White Sharks in their natural environment.

We regret that we are not currently accepting volunteers on PRBO's shark project.

We graciously thank the Wendy P. McCaw Foundation for supporting PRBO's White Shark conservation, education and outreach project.
