Taylor Ham or Pork Roll? Settle the debate once and for all by symbolically adopting a New Jersey sandbar shark, named after our state’s most famous breakfast meat!

Factsheet about sharks and their habitats
Sticker of your chosen shark name
Set of New Jersey shark bookmarks
Set of New Jersey shark greeting cards
2X/year email update on your adopted shark, including access to maps of where it has been
