Dozens Of Dead Sharks Wash Ashore Jersey Shore Beach
Nearly 30 juvenile dogfish sharks washed up along Sea Isle City’s beach between 29th and 39th streets earlier this week, which a marine science professor called unusual even by his 50-year standard. Experts say a stranding or an at-sea dump is the likely cause, and the NJ Department of Environmental Protection isn’t raising alarms, though the sheer number has researchers puzzled.
