Chris Lowe, director of California State Long Beach University's Shark Lab, told the Orange County Register that spring is "shark pupping season," so there will be more juvenile sharks spotted close to shore. There have already been reports of 5-foot sharks spotted off the coast of Ventura, Lowe told the Register.
