Researchers Want To Hear About Shark Encounters While Fishing

Umass Amherst

Do you have a fish story about an encounter with a shark? 

  If so, researchers from the University of Massachusetts Amherst would like to hear it.

A survey has been posted for people to share their experiences with sharks while fishing in saltwater anywhere in North America.

The research is being headed by Grace Casselberry, a PhD student.  She spoke with WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill.

The record-setting tenure of Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno. The 2011 tornado and its recovery that remade the largest city in Western Massachusetts. The fallout from the deadly COVID outbreak at the Holyoke Soldiers Home. Those are just a few of the thousands and thousands of stories WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill has covered for WAMC in his nearly 17 years with the station.
