The Sierra Club has become extremely concerned about Point Reyes National Seashore’s management of the 2,600-acre Tomales Point Elk Reserve, where tule elk are held captive behind an eight-foot, woven-wire fence. 254 individual elk (47% of the population) died there during the 2012-2015 drought while the wild, free-roaming Drakes Beach and Limantour herds increased.

NEWPORT, Ore. â The population of white sharks that call the Central California coast their primary home is holding steady at about 300 animals and shows some signs of growth, a new long-term study of the species has shown.
Between 2011 and 2018, researchers were able to identify hundreds of individual adult and subadult white sharks, which are not fully mature but are old enough to prey on marine mammals. They used that information to develop estimates of the sharksâ abundance.
âThe finding, a result of eight years of photographing and identifying individual sharks in the group, is an important indicator of the overall health of the marine environment in which the sharks live,â said Taylor Chapple of the Coastal Oregon Marine Experiment Station at Oregon State Universityâs Hatfield Marine Science Center and a co-author of the study.
