If you are interested in helping us, please take a small tissue sample from any leopard shark you catch (typically a fin clip works perfectly--just cut a tiny piece of the tip of their fin with scissors or a knife--about the size of a pinky finger nail). Please write down the exact location of the catch, approximate size (to nearest foot), and sex (male or female). The fin clip should be put into the freezer within a few hours of collection. We can then arrange pickup or pay for shipping. >>

Please contact ambarker@ucsd.edu with questions or if you happen to get a tissue sample. Thanks so much for your help!!!
