"In the meantime, let me get back to the beach, which also has a Wild West angle. Way back in 1979, as my colleague Tony Barboza reported on Sunday, "Bonanza" stars Lorne Greene and Michael Landon donated beach property to the public in the name of Dan Blocker, who played Hoss Cartwright on the show. The deal was that it had to be used as a "public park for recreation purposes." It ended up under L.A. County control in 1997, and the state Coastal Conservancy coughed up a $700,000 grant in 2004 to help get Dan Blocker County Beach up and running."

"Hybrid-Shark-Species-Found""

"....AS STATED “Wild hybrids are usually hard to find, so detecting hybrids and their offspring is extraordinary. To find 57 hybrids along 2000 km of coastline is unprecedented,” said Dr. Jennifer Ovenden, an expert in genetics of fisheries species and a member of the scientific team."
“Hybridization could enable the sharks to adapt to environmental change as the smaller Australian black tip currently favors tropical waters in the north, while the larger common black tip is more abundant in sub-tropical and temperate waters along the south-eastern Australian coastline,” she said."
Meaner, leaner AND just the ticket for divers, scientist and shark enthusiast around the world who can travel and one which is a global topic with graphic detail and stats."
