Hi David,

Welcome on :sblogo:
 
Welcome aboard David! I'm sure you'll find fellow sharks in the forums, and more than likely a thread already... have a look around and if nothing else, start one! 8^)

I've dove around sharks before, I don't hold the mind-numbing fear they tend to generate in some folks. They're kinda like rattlesnakes... they really wanna have nothing to do with you normally and if you don't mess with 'em, they'd just as soon steer clear of you too...

'course there are exceptions and I have seen a curious one or three.. (grin)

Did you know that 2009 is the International Year of the Shark?

Studies show that at the current rate many common shark species will be extinct in 10 to 15 years. In large regions, species that were once numerous have fallen to 1% of their original numbers. Studies of open ocean sharks estimate 80 to 90% of heavily fished species are gone. Yet these intelligent animals, also called the “Wolves of the Sea” are still fished intensively, and finned for “shark fin soup.” The oceans have evolved over hundreds of millions of years with sharks as apex predators, so their loss will destroy oceanic health.
