White sharks endangered?

Three environmental groups petitioned the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration earlier this week to list the West Coast population of great white sharks under the Endangered Species Act. It's a fascinating piece. Read the Washington Post article.

On a separate note, there's a gritty, punkish band in Washington, D.C., (my home town) called Shark Week debuting their album this week, which happens to be the Discovery Channel's annual Shark Week. (FYI, there's some swearing in the songs.)

'Xoc Pup'

A reminder that you can read Xoc Pup, the 8-page, online "mid-quel" to Xoc at the Big Planet Comics website, which sponsored the strip!
