Shark Lab at Risk of Shutdown | Greensboro News

A 30-year-old shark monitoring program at Cal State Long Beach, vital for beach safety along 100 miles of coastline, faces a $3 million funding shortfall by summer 2025—risking shutdown and putting public safety at risk. Since its inception after a major sewage spill, the lab has tagged 30 sharks and recorded 18 interactions, using tech to alert lifeguards and the public. With only $2 million from the state last year, director Christopher Lowe is scrambling for new funding from foundations, corporations, and agencies to keep the program alive. Without it, beach closures, economic damage, and lost educational outreach for kids could follow. This crisis underscores how critical scientific research is for managing human-wildlife interactions—and protecting both people and sharks.
