“I guess you wouldn’t call me a shark hugger,” Greg Skomal says from Cape Cod. “I’m a classically trained fisheries biologist. I believe that if you have sustainable fisheries, you should allow people to fish. Fishermen have helped me so much, and taught me so much. I don’t paint them as bad people. I try to show all sides.”
Skomal, 61, is a senior fisheries biologist with the Massachusetts division of marine fisheries, an adjunct professor at the University of Massachusetts, and director of the Massachusetts shark research program.
