this research we can better predict where these sharks are going, to prevent attacks,
protecting them from poaching or fishing, and monitoring and promoting safe waters for
them. Knowing who they are is another step in understanding what they are. The White
Shark or Carcharodon carcharias (Domeir) has been the apex ocean predator since
before mankind and will continue its rein over the seas for centuries to come. This is
however if we as the caretakers of the planet better understand them, their habitat, their
lifestyles, and how we can prevent from interfering with unwanted encounters. We are
custodians of this earth, and life is a rare and precious thing in the cosmos. With this
approach to identifying the individuals of a species, we can further analyze them and
document their behaviors and life style, proving that the Interdisciplinary way of thinking
not only has real world applications, but also real world solutions.
