Myths and reality of attacks will be discussed, as well as current research, tagging and tracking efforts. The class will combine PowerPoint, physical examples, and student interaction/discussion. I will also give a personal insight into the sightings and interactions that I have had with Great White...

By the end of this class, students will be able to share distinguishing characteristics and behavioral traits of the Great White Shark and how it differs from other species of sharks.
