This platform also allows people to submit photographs of = basking sharks to our Photo ID Catalogue. The objective is to gain a = better understanding of shark distribution and occurrence in this region = and the more people we have submitting sightings and photographs, the = better. SIN began in the Bay of Fundy a couple years ago, an initiative = of the Grand Manan Whale and Seabird Research Station, in partnership = with World Wildlife Fund and funding from the Habitat Stewardship = Program (HSP). Thanks to funding from HSP, we expanded to the rest of = Nova Scotia and the Gulf of Maine this past year and over the next two = years, will be expanding to Newfoundland, PEI and parts of Quebec.=20 Jarrett Corke (WWF) made a great website for SIN http://sharkidnetwork.com/ which now hosts our blog: http://sharkidnetwork.com/blog/ (you can follow the blog by clicking the +Follow tab that pops up in = the bottom right-hand corner and entering your email address).=20 To try and reach more people, we also have a Facebook page = https://www.facebook.com/sharkidetwork We're hoping people can "like" us and spread the word. It doesn't = matter where you live, the more people we can reach out to, the better. = So please pass this info along to anyone you think would be interested! = Thanks!!
