Unraveling the 1916 NJ Shark Attacks events from a Shark’s Point of View

Join us at The BoatHouse Red Bank for a unique event where we will be Unraveling the 1916 NJ Shark Attacks events from a Shark’s Point of View! Dive into the fascinating perspective of a shark as we explore the historic shark attacks that took place in New Jersey in 1916. Spanning just 12 summer days, the event caused widespread panic and reshaped public perception of sharks from fish to man-eaters.

Join Jenna Reynolds, Exc. Director of Save Coastal Wildlife, for a special presentation at the beautiful BoattHouse in Red Bank, NJ during Discovery Channel’s shark week and the 50th anniversary of JAWS. We’ll explore the history of the attacks from the perspective of sharks, uncovering their habitat and ecology, attack motivations, and the impact the 1916 shark attacks have had on public perception and scientific research.
