Something Strange Is Happening With These Leopard Sharks

Take the 2023 PBS Survey: https://to.pbs.org/pbssurvey2023i

Shark scientists Jasmin Graham, A-bel Gong, and Andrew Nosal head over to La Jolla to investigate a natural “shark spa.” This unique part of the California coast is a favorite spot for leopard sharks and guitarfish. After studying them from afar, the team is heading out to check on the health of these elasmobranchs and see if they can gain insight into a new, strange behavior.

All research activities performed under a California Department of Fish and Wildlife Scientific Collecting Permit.

On Sharks Unknown, host Jasmin Graham goes on a mission with shark scientists to investigate mysteries, the wonders of shark migration, explore what warming waters actually mean for these animals, and much more.
