Wildlife Wednesday (Southeast Chapter): Come to the shark side: getting to know Alaska’s sharks

Join us for a free virtual presentation with guest speakers, Sabrina Garcia and Dr. Cindy Tribuzio!

Did you know that several species of sharks inhabit Alaskan waters? The three common species include the charismatic salmon shark, the underappreciated spiny dogfish, and the elusive Pacific sleeper shark. Join us for a discussion of the different sharks found in Alaskan waters and how these species are assessed and managed, and learn about some fantastic research partnerships with exciting results!

Sabrina Garcia is a research biologist with the Alaska Department of Fish & Game in Anchorage, AK, and Dr. Cindy Tribuzio is a research fishery biologist with NOAA Fisheries Science Center in Juneau, AK.

This event will be recorded for future viewing and will be accessible on our YouTube page.
