Dr. Greg Skomal, Shark Researcher for Massachusetts Marine Fisheries, captures video footage of a Great White Shark, while the crew listens for its radio tag, off the coast of Chatham, Massachusetts, on October 21, 2022. - We're discovering new aspects about their biology, we never even knew before, Skomal, 61,said. For example, we discovered that white sharks travel out into the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. And when they do that, they dive down to depths as great as 3,000 feet (914 meters.) Nobody knew that. Data and research gained by these tagging trips and ongoing research by Skomal and the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy is shared with the public to make the environment safer for both people and sharks.
