    The bull sharks are still here!!!!!!!

    Legal, apparently yes - the bulls are essentially unprotected. Responsible, sustainable fishing management, the right thing to do, and forward-thinking? Not so much. This, we hope we can change. SWEET! I had two offers to dive with them (the sharks, that is) this week, and couldn't do either...

    PDC bull sharks wiped out.

    Jorge & team are vocal proponents, a second-generation locally owned operation, and their support is tremendous, as is the amount of work they've already put in. The fact that they have already jumped through all of the hoops to create a non-profit A.C. is a huge help. And hey, we're all after...

    PDC bull sharks wiped out.

    And... your intrepid reporter is back. First - thank you, truly, everyone, for signing and supporting. The petition (and it's still up) now has 906 signatures on it, and we'll leave it open - this ain't gonna be a fast process. (No surprise there). So - last night a meeting was held at the...

    PDC bull sharks wiped out.

    Good morning from Playa - 3 signatures short of 700, and down to the last few hours before tonight's industry/government meeting. So one last push - if you've signed, THANK YOU, and if you haven't, please do! Cavew0man and her shark friends thank you.

    PDC bull sharks wiped out.

    Reaching for the Zoloft as I type... although in between snippets of xenophobia and "hey dude, they bite people" there were a few glimmers of hope.

    PDC bull sharks wiped out.

    You know, that is a good suggestion, and I'm going to pass it along. I do know that many of the resorts are run by large chains without head offices here (quite often outside of Mexico, too), so it could take some lead time to get corporate backing on that. But it is an excellent suggestion, and...

    PDC bull sharks wiped out.

    You know, I don't know the answer to that question - I know someone is doing it, but I don't personally know who, and I've never (and will never) do a feeding dive with them. They are truly majestic just hanging out and being sharks. My only piece of advice for the dive is don't inadvertently...

    Super suggestion - hadn't even thought of the non-diving and marine boards. I'll hop on over there. Over 300 sigs this morning - let's keep going! Oh, and I have to say - it's not me you're supporting - I'm doing all I can to help, but the real heroes here are the group founders at UW...
