British Fast Food Fish Shops Are Serving up Endangered Shark Meat - https://t.co/0KoWFkF4Pg #GoogleAlerts. This is not a problem that is going away unless additional monitoring is put in place. Easy to implement tools like @LifeScanApp will move us closer to a solution.

Did you miss my earlier #sciencetwitter request? I’m looking for any and all folklore, legends, myths, etc. that contain #sharks and their relatives. Reminder: that includes stingrays, skates, chimaeras! Please RT- it’s for science.
