In turbulent markets, remain focused Volatility in the financial markets is a constant. Over the long run, taking advantage of these changes in value i what most investors hope to achieve. Managing the short-term swings, either up or down, however, can challenge even the most disciplined investor.

HOW ARE YOU GUIDING YOUR CLIENTS IN TODAY’S VOLATILE ENVIRONMENT?

While the specifics of our guidance obviously vary by client, our recurring theme is: investment success is more likely to happen through thoughtful portfolio management. This means risk analysis, evaluating concentration, and leveraging quantitative and qualitative research.

Volatility can muddle investor thinking. In our experience, a basket of investments hastily brought together during market swings can also bring with them unwelcome surprises: tax consequences, increased risk, lower returns and lost opportunity.

WHAT CAUSES MARKET VOLATILITY?

Wide swings in the marketplace can have many causes, and sometimes unknown causes. Changes in company management or unexpected earnings, for instance, can provoke responses that may cascade into sector-wide activity, and beyond. Political events, such as an election, or global events, such as our current pandemic, can trigger turmoil in the marketplace. Whatever the cause, investor emotion often runs high. Investors worry, should I sell, should I buy, am I missing out while others amass a future fortune?

HOW CAN PERCEIVED OPPORTUNITY REALLY BE RISK?

In markets characterized by wide swings, investors can be tempted to sell at abrupt highs and buy at sudden lows. In so doing, they may end up with a collection of mismatched investments that run counter to their financial goals. And they may cash out on otherwise strong investments, eliminating the possibility of further long-term gains. While hindsight is always 20/20, in times of sharp surges and declines, it’s important to maintain a long-term view and focus on your primary reasons for investing.

WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED FROM PAST MARKET SWINGS?

The field of behavioral economics is devoted to the study of the relationship between emotion and financial decision-making. Numerous studies have shown that investor behavior during periods of marked volatility—following a selloff trend, for example—can result in poor returns. A recent Dalbar study compared the 20year results of an average mutual fund investor to indices: the average investor, who sometimes resorts to market timing or other performancechasing strategies, underperformed based on measures of annualized returns and the growth of $100,000.*

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU OFFER TODAY’S INVESTOR?

Investors should always keep in mind that the time value of money is perhaps the greatest factor driving its change in value. In plummeting markets, be sure you carefully evaluate the decision to cash in, closing the door on future gains. On the flip side, acquiring “bargain” investments when market momentum is feverishly optimistic may prove to be riskier than at first glance. When serious sums are at stake, we urge investors to seek professional advice.

Editor’s note

The power of nature

© LILA PHOTO

W

hen it comes time to start working on our naturethemed issue each year, it’s always one of my favorite few weeks of the year at my job. Simply put, I don’t think there’s any topic I enjoy more than the great outdoors. Inevitably, as I write and edit stories, go on photo shoots, and talk to various people in the community about what aspect of the planet they’re passionate about, I come away learning something new.

This year was no different. I loved chatting with Greg Braun, executive director of The Guardians of Martin County, while we were shooting his portrait in Hobe Sound on a plot of land that he had a hand in purchasing late last year as part of a preservation project called the Loxa-Lucie Headwaters Initiative. The photographer and I trudged through the swamp with Mr. Braun, and it was wonderful! Read about the initiative and what it means for our future in “Ecological Excellence,” beginning on page 42.

One aspect of local nature I knew I wanted to include in this issue is the Loxahatchee River. I’m lucky to live along the river, where I can launch my paddleboard and fish for snook, and it holds a special place in my heart. When we decided to send a photographer on a canoeing adventure to shoot the beautiful fauna and flora along the river, I knew just whom to call.... Mark Cook shot such beautiful portaits of the animals at Busch Wildlife Sanctuary for our March issue last year, he was undoubtedly the guy for the gig. Turn to page 46 to check out the breathtaking photos from his journey in “Loxahatchee Love” (and head to jupitermag.com/loxlove to see even more pics from the shoot).

Another feature that taught me a lot this month—and I think you might learn something from too—is “Protecting a Predator” (page 56). We talked to a bunch of local experts about one of the most fascinating and often misunderstood creatures sharing our planet: sharks.

I also want to say a big thank you to our cover model, Jupiter native Kai Lassen, and her husband Jud Buechler, for opening up their home to us and sharing the story of their life. Lassen grew up in Jupiter and, after years spent traveling the world as a professional model, she now designs these gorgeous custom hats and is opening a showroom in town this month. Read her story in “Hats Off!” (page 36).

I love night paddling!

As always, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me if there’s anything at all you’d like to share, whether that be a great idea for a story, feedback on something you’ve read, or just to say hello.

Peace and blessings,

Michelle Lee Ribeiro michelle@jupitermag.com

A

s I write this in early February, the temperatures have finally gone back to above 60 degrees. What a cold spell we had! I had to put on my heat for the first time in several years. I am looking forward to the warmth of March and the arrival of spring.

Despite what many think, did you know we have a spring season?

There is a great diversity of flora blossoming throughout our state this time of year. Florida’s bounty of bougainvillea, begonias, gardenias, oleanders, roses, hibiscus, and camellias beckon many out-of-towners to plan a visit and see them in full bloom.

Many of our visitors here in northern Palm Beach County will enjoy golfing, playing tennis, riding horses, going to our beaches, and taking some relaxing nature walks in our amazing state parks. Our visitors will also enjoy great shopping and eating at local restaurants. I feel blessed to live where we can be outside most of the year, enjoying nature and sports alike. I love to ride my bike, play golf, get out on the tennis courts, walk on our sandy beaches, and, now that the weather is warmer, dip into our beautiful waters.

I can’t wait to read this month’s nature-themed issue and learn more about the environs of our local area, like the Loxahatchee River. I continue to discover more about the great outdoors with each issue, as our editorial team does a fantastic job of producing features about our special slice of paradise.

We invite you to sit down, relax, and enjoy our March issue and also to visit jupitermag.com. While on the site, be sure to sign up for our Insider’s Guide weekly newsletter to keep up with current events and news.

Thank you for your readership and for supporting Jupiter Magazine. I look forward to continuing to support our local community and businesses. Please reach out to me anytime with news to pass on to our editorial team, events we might support and sponsor, or any advertising needs you may have.

Hope to see you around town!

Built in 1980, the property has garnered a reputation as a destination for inimitable luxury and service.

That reputation expands even further this month with the completion of PGA National’s extensive $100 million MARCH 2022 | JUPITER

renovation, one that has transformed the property into what Managing Director Patrick Brophy describes as a “360degree luxury travel experience.”

The renovation touches on virtually every aspect of the resort. From the moment guests arrive, they are greeted by a 1960s-inspired lobby replete with period furniture, grandiose palm leaf chandeliers, and lively colors and patterns like gold, pink, cheetah, and burnt orange. A replica of a banyan tree with more than 1,500 LED lights illuminates the lobby bar, where bartenders serve up classic cocktails to guests sitting on palm tree– cushioned stools.

The resort is also home to six new culinary concepts. Stop by Birdie’s Diner for a retro-chic dining experience or enjoy high-end cuisine at The Butcher’s Club.

resident Lindsay Autry spearheads Honeybelle, an indoor/outdoor restaurant reminiscent of South Florida beach cafés.

To satisfy your sweet tooth, stop into the chocolate-centric Sugarplume or vintage ice cream shop Big Drip.

Those seeking reprieve can find solace at The Spa at PGA National, which boasts a brand-new look plus a 1950s-inspired barbershop and serene fountains with soothing sounds. A couple’s treatment room, two Himalayan salt rooms, and three mineral pools round out the offerings.

Guests who are coming for the golf will appreciate two Andy Staples– designed courses. True to its name, The Match Course encourages match play and is designed for players of all abilities.

The Staple Course, a nine-hole course built on the old Squire course, offers nine holes of fun and adventure with unexpected curves, slopes, and features. pgaresort.com

Turtle-topia S

ince 1983, Loggerhead Marinelife Center has provided a unique opportunity to get up close and personal with sea turtles, which have inhabited our oceans for more than 100 million years but whose numbers have dwindled substantially. With most species now considered endangered, Loggerhead Marinelife Center set out in 2019 to expand its campus to accelerate ocean conservation and education in Palm Beach County. That project culminates April 2 with the unveiling of 27,500 square feet of new space housing hospitals, exhibits, classrooms, retail, a research laboratory, and various areas for exploration and inspiration. One Ocean Hall is home to a mesmerizing, 975-gallon moon jellyfish exhibit and a state-of-the-art, hands-on digital coral reef exhibit. “Our expanded space will allow us to further commit to the rescue and rehabilitation of the endangered sea turtles and to solving the ocean problems these sea turtles are revealing to us,” says Marilu Flores, director of marketing and communications.

Ahead of the launch, Loggerhead is offering several immersive programs and tours beginning this month. marinelife.org —V.S.

his issue is all about nature and the outdoors, so I figured it was a perfect time to “go green” in the chicest way possible. Green is such a hot color—it always shows up on the red carpet and is the color of life and renewal.

Let me be the first to tell you how hot a green kitchen is right now. I want to repaint all my white cabinets a deep forest green—but at the moment, the only green thing in my kitchen is this amazing resin charcuterie board by Happi Crafts. It’s such a statement piece, and I’m obsessed with it! Local business owner Roshelle Anderson makes these boards and other fun household items and has garnered a celebrity following for the playful brand.

How about some kale to put on top of that cutting board? Well, let’s get out of the kitchen for a minute and put kale on our nails!

NailKale by Nails Inc. claims to be the first “superfood polish” that promotes stronger, smoother, and healthier nails—it has actual kale in the formula, and the shade is beautiful.

In my opinion, no stone is more beautiful than an emerald.

According to legend, wearing emeralds can reveal truth and protect you against evil spells. I love the selection of emeralds at JC Martin Jewelers. The modern stacks you can make with their rings are endless, and the necklace shown here is a work of art.

If you’re a fan of Bottega Veneta, you’ll love these mules in stunning green—it’s my new favorite shade in this super popular (and comfy) shoe.

Finally, everyone’s been talking about this new Kris Jenner Safely cleaning brand.

It’s green from the inside out, and it works great too. xo Emily

A GROWING

Trend

Microgreens are not only good for your health, but they also add flavor and texture to everyday meals

by ABIGAIL DUFFY

L

Clockwise from top: A variety of microgreens; tiny greens make for a healthy topping on avocado toast; the Stuart Green Market; Alissa Schey Mondina.

What ignited your passion for microgreens?

I love the fact that they are easy to grow and rich with nutrients we all could use more of, including vitamins A, C, and K, folate, protein, beta-carotene, and more. Adding them to any dish ramps up the nutritional value.

What are some of your favorite varieties of microgreens?

I love purple radish microgreens because of the added crunch and spiciness, on top of the beta-carotene and toxin-removal properties. I put them in all of my salads and sandwiches. Sunflower microgreens are also high on my favorites list. The crunchiness is out-of-this-world amazing on avocado toast, and they also give you a dose of protein.

I’m also a huge fan of white pizza topped with a pile of fresh arugula microgreens.

What are some of the key benefits?

Radish microgreens can remove toxins from the body, which is a benefit that is very attractive to me when I think of all the toxins we unknowingly consume day-to-day. I eat a plantbased diet, so I am also always looking for ways to add extra protein to my diet. The high protein in sunflower microgreens (6 grams per ¼ cup) fulfills that when added to any dish.

Can microgreens be grown at home?

They sure can! It's fun, easy, and rewarding. You just need a container, good soil, seeds, and a sunny window. I sell a Grow Your Own Kit on my website that includes everything you need to get started including seeds, soil, compostable containers, and, most important, directions to guide you through your first grow. ❖

tight-knit Frisbies are all about multigenerational gatherings, and that ethos has driven the design of the villas. With four bedrooms and more than 3,100 square feet across three levels, these homes away from home have every creature comfort imaginable (down to a fully stocked laundry room) and multiple areas for families to spread out. Best of all, they’re perched directly on the water’s edge, so access to the beach, pools, and marina couldn’t be easier.

The mood here is definitely relaxed, but that’s the idea. Gather at your ground-level alfresco dining room for breakfast, then grab a paddleboard or kayak (both are complimentary to guests) and explore the shoreline. Later, play a game of volleyball or take an outdoor fitness class. At day’s end, enjoy cocktails at the Ocean House tiki bar or kick back on Adirondack chairs and watch the sunset while the kids play cornhole. If it sounds idyllic—a step back in time, even—that’s because it is.

Although the temptation is to do a whole lot of nothing, active types won’t be disappointed. There’s a pickleball court

on property and a 24-hour gym for those who like to work up a sweat. An on-site concierge can help arrange fishing outings, especially when the tarpon are biting, as well as day trips to other Keys by boat, car, or seaplane.

The Islands is committed to conservation and sustainability, and even offers guests eco-themed excursions like exploring Big Pine Key to see the precious, endangered Key deer. Memories, and good vibes, guaranteed. theislandsofislamorada.com ❖

at 900 East Indiantown Road, where she plans to host hat parties, bridal parties, private appointments, and scheduled shopping appointments.

“For some reason, Florida became my niche,” says Lassen, who has a home in San Diego as well as a condo in Jupiter. “In California, there are a lot of amazing hat makers, but there’s nothing like this in Florida. It’s nice to have the business grow here first because I’m from here.”

Relaxing in the condo near the ocean that Lassen and her husband—former NBA player Jud Buechler—occupy when they’re in town, the two chat about their beach-centric life and Lassen’s budding new business while their 12-year-old Silky Yorkie, Zuma, relaxes on the couch.

to play for the New Jersey Nets, then the San Antonio Spurs, the Golden State Warriors, and the Chicago Bulls. He was with the Bulls during the years when the team—including Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, and Dennis Rodman—achieved their second three-peat of the 1990s (the team’s reign is the subject of a docuseries currently airing on Netflix, The Last Dance). He rounded out his playing career with stints at the Detroit Pistons, Phoenix Suns, and Orlando Magic and, after taking some time off to coach his two teenage daughters in volleyball, he returned to the NBA as an assistant coach for

the Los Angeles Lakers and then the New York Knicks.

It was while Buechler was in Los Angeles coaching the Lakers that he met Lassen, who was living in Manhattan Beach at the time. Both divorced, neither was interested in a relationship, but when mutual friends wanted to set them up in the summer of 2017, they grudgingly agreed to meet at a restaurant before a Hall & Oates concert. For Buechler, the attraction was instantaneous. “I walked into the restaurant with a friend who pointed her out to me, and I was like, ‘Wow,’” he recalls. “She was obviously tall and beautiful with

a beautiful smile, and I thought, ‘We’re off to a great start.’”

The attraction was mutual. Says Lassen: “Before we met, I was thinking that the worst case scenario is that this guy stinks and I can go home. But there was just this spark, and he’s so tall, even though I was wearing heels.”

They moved in together after just a few months and have been together ever since.

The couple spends most of their time in Jupiter, San Diego and Baja, Mexico, seeking surf and sand. Growing up in Jupiter, Lassen recalls a similar, idyllic, athletic childhood on the water, when her mother, Kathy, could barely coax her and her brother inside. She attended Jupiter High School, but when her modeling career took off during her teenage years, she transferred to the more flexible schedule at Jupiter Farms Community Christian School.

At 16, as her star was ascending in the modeling industry, she convinced her father, Bo, to co-sign on a lease so she could get her own place in New York City. These days, she is represented

by Brand Model and Talent, though she has largely stepped away from the industry. “I’ll do a job if they ask,” she says.

Making hats is what she feels she was meant to do, and she is loyal to the locals who have helped her along the way. A network of niche sellers and small businesswomen in Jupiter have supported her from the start, she says, and she is dedicated to paying it forward by featuring some of them on her site and at the new showroom.

That same generosity of spirit extends to her relationships with clients. “I like them to feel really involved in the design if they want to be,” she says, picking up a hat from a table filled with orders ready to be shipped. “This client, for example, wanted an ocean vibe,” she says. “She chose these turquoise beads as the hatband, and I stitched a gold wave on the side.

For another woman, I embroidered flowers along with her daughter’s name.”

The success of the business fulfills Lassen’s creative passion, not just for herself, but, she believes, for others as well. “I get to bring others’ visions to life,” she says, “and that’s very rewarding.” The organic approach she takes to her business can describe her philosophy on life in general: “I don’t set expectations for myself. Instead, I like to see where things go. I’m just enjoying the ride.” ❖

AN AMBITIOUS GROUP OF CONSERVATIONISTS HAVE BEEN WORKING TIRELESSLY TO PROTECT 70,000 ACRES OF LAND BETWEEN HOBE SOUND AND STUART—AND THEY RECENTLY SCORED A SMALL BUT MIGHTY WIN

C

The Guardians of Martin County Executive Director Greg Braun stands at the site in Hobe Sound that the Loxa-Lucie Headwaters Initiative has purchased—the first step of an ambitious project.

b y L I N DA M A R X photography by STEVEN MARTINE

lean water and conservation have played a major role in Greg Braun’s life ever since he was a young boy growing up in the Midwest. Every summer, his family vacationed at Clear Lake, Indiana, not far from his Ohio home. “I remember swimming in the lake and loving it,” says Braun. “Water quality was never an issue there. I got interested in ecology after those years and now spend my life trying to improve the environment.”

A resident of Jupiter Farms, Braun is the owner of Sustainable Ecosystems International, a company that performs ecological assessments and assists clients with environmental projects in areas of marine, estuarine, freshwater wetlands, and upland habitats in Florida, parts of the Southeast, and the Bahamas and Caribbean. His company consults for government agencies, public and private utilities, the conservation community, and private developers who want to design and manage facilities with a strong focus on protecting and enhancing our natural resources.

As executive director of The Guardians of Martin County, he is currently involved with a local project called the Loxa-Lucie Headwaters Initiative. The initiative is a collaboration among three nonprofits—The Guardians of Martin County, the Treasured Lands Foundation, and The Conservation Fund—whose mission is to design a permanently protected ecological corridor in southern Martin County/northern Palm Beach County between the St. Lucie and Loxahatchee rivers. The ambitious effort’s long-term goal is to purchase and protect 70,000 acres of land there and create a “green corridor” connecting Jonathan Dickinson and Atlantic Ridge state parks and protecting plants and wildlife.

“This important project began as a tribute to Nat Reed, whose prominent Jupiter Island family has decades of conservation experience going back to The Nature Conservancy’s Blowing Rocks Preserve and the National Wildlife Refuge,” says Braun. “When he died,

we wanted to perpetuate his legacy with a new land initiative.” Reed, who was 84 when he died in 2018, led conservation plights, spoke out against projects that threatened to ruin the environment, and helped turn the Endangered Species Act into law while he was serving as U.S. Assistant Secretary of the Interior in the 1970s.

In December, the Loxa-Lucie Initiative announced that it is slowly chipping away at that 70,000-acre goal: With generous donations from more than 200 entities (both large and small, organizations and individuals), the group was able to purchase a 138-acre parcel of land on the north side of Bridge Road in Hobe Sound. This first major purchase—which cost $3.5 million—ensures the protection of a 2-mile stretch that fronts the north side of Bridge Road and extends east and west from Powerline Avenue. It is important, says Braun, because it forms the “essential keystone of the long-term vision for conservation of a landscape” spanning the nearly 70,000 acres between the two state parks.

It’s a small piece of the overall goal, but it’s an uplifting start.

“Our purpose is to protect the entire area from future development by either acquisition or the establishment of conservation easements,” says Braun. “We still have a long way to go, but this purchase is great news—any parcel we bring in helps us achieve our goal.”

After graduating in 1978 with a B.S. in oceanography from the Melbourne campus of Florida Institute of Technology, Braun embarked on a diverse career in ecology. For various clients, he has conducted surveys on endangered species and performed ecological assessments on tracts of land including small inland parcels in Florida and the Bahamas and entire islands in the Caribbean.

He has done wetland jurisdictional delineations and qualitative assessments, floral and faunal inventories, and worked on land management/development and habitat restoration plans. “I pick and choose what I do now since I am self-employed,” he says. “As my career advanced, I could take on the projects that I care about.”

In Martin County, he chaired a 1989 committee that raised $20 million for public land acquisition of environmentally sensitive resources and recreationally important lands. He is also involved with the follow-up project, after county voters approved a 2006 sales tax to raise an additional $60 million for public land acquisition and park improvements. He has served on Martin County’s Land Acquisition Selection Committee and worked with the State of Florida on the joint acquisition and management of different parcels.

From top: Braun scouts the newly purchased site, noting that much of the invasive non-native vegetation will need to be controlled or eliminated so that as hydrology is restored, wetland vegetation like sawgrass, pond apples, willows, and cypress can become more abundant; admiring a bird passing by.

As the leader of nonprofit The Guardians of Martin County, his goal is to educate residents about balancing natural and man-made resources to enrich the quality of life both for right now and for the future. Unavoidably, the team is often forced to make tough decisions. “We are a growth-management group and want responsible projects like Loxa-Lucie,” says Braun. “We take unpopular positions, and we win and lose battles.”

The key to success with the Loxa-Lucie project is to generate money for more land acquisitions by raising public awareness of the issues and urgencies. Braun and the rest of the team spend their days speaking to various groups and letting locals know that if they want to continue to live in small-town bliss, protecting these lands, wildlife, and water quality is of paramount importance. “I am happy with the community reaction to this project, so I am encouraged,” he says. “The positive response means the prospect of getting state financing, which would be a huge boost.”

“The Loxa-Lucie Headwaters team is optimistic that the completion of this first acquisition demonstrates that local residents strongly support the vision of protecting these undeveloped lands,” he continues. “As hydrologic restoration ensues to help address chronic flooding in Hobe Sound, saltwater intrusion, and water quality improvement, we’re hopeful that governmental entities will become more engaged in the project.”

An avid outdoorsman, Braun enjoys boating and spending time at Jonathan Dickinson State Park. Before having children, he

even hiked the challenging Appalachian Trail (which traverses 14 states). He loves the inner connection among greenways, humans, plants, and animals. He also documents plants living throughout the state for the Native Plant Society and enjoys time at his family cottage in Maine. It’s a spot that helped cement his early interest in ecology. “I eventually bought the cottage from my family, and I love going up there and seeing that beautiful part of the country in the summer,” he says.

A staunch protector of nature, Braun is also a businessman—and a pragmatist. He supports genuine ecotourism and has worked with project teams to design and develop facilities (like resorts) that demonstrate the linkage between stewardship and public use of natural resources. “Projects in which financial profit is enhanced with the increased health of the environment is the win-win relationship that is too often thought to be impossible in today’s world,” he says. ❖

ondon-born photographer Mark Cook grew up in a small rural village in Southern England, where he spent much of his youth in local woodlands, fields, and rivers. He developed an early passion for the natural world during those times, which ultimately led to a career in the natural sciences.

Armed with an MSc in ecology and a PhD in avian behavioral ecology, Cook has spent his professional life working in sync with nature. He has studied arctic seabirds on remote Scottish islands and neotropical songbirds in the rainforests of Puerto Rico. He currently leads a group of research scientists at the South Florida Water Management District, where for the past 18 years he has focused on the restoration and management of wetland animals in the Everglades—including wading birds such as herons, egrets, storks, and ibises.

“Modern society has disconnected us from nature,” says Cook, who now resides in Jupiter Farms. “But as a species, we are a part of—and remain very much reliant on—our natural environment.”

He began photographing his environs to document his scientific studies and soon discovered a passion for shooting the wonder and beauty of the swamp. “Wildlife photography is a game of patience that requires long periods of quiet time within nature,” he says. “For me, it provides that essential reconnection with the world we belong to, allows for a greater understanding of nature, and affords me an artistic outlet that I don’t get in my scientific career.”

For this photo essay, Cook took three canoe trips on the Loxahatchee—two solo and a third with his wife and two daughters. He went from Riverbend Park downstream to Trapper Nelson’s and back again, where enormous ancient cypress trees envelop part of the river. He traveled upriver from Jonathan Dickinson, paddling the lower reaches of the river where it is wider, more tidal, influenced by salt water, and surrounded by red mangroves and different species of wildlife. All in all, Cook covered around 8 to 10 miles over 14 hours, shooting the photos you see on these pages.

One of the highlights of his journey came when he encountered a wild barred owl. “After hearing the simian-like sounds of a male owl calling to its partner, I paddled upstream, searching for about an hour for this cryptic bird until I finally located him on a low branch in the shadows of dense vegetation,” says Cook. “I hauled up the canoe, waded through the river, crawled through the undergrowth, and managed to eventually get within about 10 feet of him. I sat on a log to rest and spent 30 wonderful minutes with him in his natural environment, watching him preen, sleep, and occasionally call to his mate.”

Cook is no stranger to the Loxahatchee. Living in Jupiter Farms allows him plenty of opportunities to explore in his free time. The river is one of the many “wild” areas he appreciates having on his doorstep—especially as a natural scientist who, well, definitely knows his stuff.

As he so eloquently puts it: “Within just 20 minutes of paddling from the launch at Riverbend Park, one is transported back in time to a primeval Florida of towering ancient cypress trees dripping with Spanish moss, epiphytic bromeliads and orchids, and a lush tropical understory of palms and giant ferns reminiscent of the Devonian Period. Out there, one expects to see prehistoric animals, and indeed one does— in the form of sleeping alligators and colorful river turtles adorning the river banks and primitive Florida garfish cruising the backwater pools. Large predatory birds like the great blue heron, a direct descendant of the dinosaur, prowl the forested margins while the strange calls of limpkins and barred owls add to the ancient soundscape.”

An ode to the Loxahatchee, in all of its wild glory. ❖

harks are enigmatic and dexterous creatures that have lived for nearly 450 million years, survived five mass extinctions, and keep the ocean’s biodiversity balanced. Without them, our underwater ecosystems would be in jeopardy as well as food security for nations around the world.

But as tough as they are—and as crucial as they are to

keeping our planet in balance—sharks are in danger.

Every year, millions are wiped out because of overfishing, water pollution, loss of habitat, and other man-made threats. And today, some species are now hovering on the brink of extinction.

Here, we look at three main threats to these apex predators—and what we can do to protect them.

SPORTFISHING Overfishing, or removing a marine species at a rate too excessive for it to replace itself, is not a new phenomenon. One of the earliest examples occurred in the last century when nearly three million cetaceans were wiped out by whaling fleets.

58

In the 1970s, as other species became drastically depleted, shark fishing went on the rise. Since then, it is estimated that 71 percent of oceanic shark populations have taken a nosedive and one-third of all sharks are now at risk of extinction, according to a new study published in Nature that re-assesses the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species’ shark extinction risk status. A new global analysis also found that the number of threatened species has doubled since the first study in 2014, with endangered and critically endangered species more than tripling.

Today, 100 million sharks are killed annually from overfishing. That is a very alarming number when you consider the fact that sharks grow slowly and take years to reproduce.

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, which manages the commercial and recreational shark fisheries in state waters, has implemented strict fishing regulations to boost the biomass levels of shark populations. Those regulations include bag and size limitations on harvestable sharks, gear requirements, and a prohibited species list. Anyone who wants to fish from shore or any structure attached to the shore (like

a bridge), must first pass an online course (myfwc.com/ sharkcourse). Once completed, they can download the complimentary Shore-Based Shark Fishing Permit, which must be renewed annually.

FIN FURY Each year, approximately 73 million sharks are killed in the name of finning for profit, the cruel and exploitive practice of slicing fins off live sharks before tossing the creatures back into the sea, where they suffocate or get eaten by other predators. Most of these fins are sent off to Asia, where shark fin soup is prized as a symbol of prosperity.

In October 2020, Governor Ron DeSantis signed the Kristin Jacobs Ocean Conservation Act to combat this problem. Named after its original sponsor, Florida Representative Kristin Jacobs, who passed away from cancer earlier that year, the bill prohibits the import, export, and sale of shark fins in Florida. Fins can only be commercially traded if the shark’s head, tail, and fins are attached when processed or landed.

The Fin Alliance, a Palm Beach–based ocean conservation organization, was one of the bill’s top supporters.

Cofounder Cassandra Scott—along with Stefanie Brendl of Shark Allies, a California-based conservancy that helped get Hawaii’s fin trade law passed—advocated for the bill, speaking at local businesses and schools.

annah Medd is hooked on sharks.

Growing up, the Maryland native and self-described water baby spent winters with her family in Florida, frolicking in the ocean.

She was 10 years old when she read somewhere that the local beach was a hot spot for sharks.

Hannah Medd “I asked my mother why she’d let me swim in such dangerous waters,” Medd recalls. “She laughed and asked me when the last time was I’d seen a shark, which was never. That’s when I realized things weren’t adding up.”

Her fascination with sharks eventually led her to Florida Tech, where she majored in marine biology and later earned a master’s degree in zoology from the University of Cape Town. In South Africa, she researched white sharks and worked for the now-shuttered nonprofit Shark Savers, where she learned that conservancy works best when science is driving it.

In 2014, Medd launched the American Shark Conservancy in Palm Beach Gardens. The nonprofit collects, analyzes, and distributes shark data that policymakers and advocates can use to push and pass better conservation laws. “We’re not a heavy advocacy group, but we want to make sure any science we do will be applied to making better policies,” she says.

So far, the information her team has gathered from analyzing the diet of sharks shows that they have no hunger for humans. “We know from our data that sharks aren’t really influenced by when people are in the water,” says Medd. “Most people in Florida have been within six feet of a shark and had no idea.”

Tagging and tracking, taking samples like blood, and using lasers are some of the monitoring techniques the team uses to gather shark analysis that could help with shark conservation policies. For example, she says, “you can get information on microplastics and contaminants from their blood and muscle, which was a really good tool to argue against the fin trade. From these studies, you can make the argument the trade should be shut down because shark fins are so toxic and full of mercury.”

Medd is working on a study that involves local lemon sharks with skin abnormalities. “We’re taking skin samples and will test them for contaminants,” she says. “We suspect it has something to do with the water quality. We’re also talking to coral and turtle people who are seeing an uptick in certain diseases. If it’s affecting coral reefs, it’s most definitely affecting sharks too.”

Another point to all of this research, says Medd, is that the more we learn about sharks, the less scary they become. “For example, did you know lemon sharks return to the same place every year to give birth, just like sea turtles?” she asks. “They’ll starve their bodies and give up all their nutrients for their babies. I can remember a time when everyone thought sharks were just these cold, steel-blue animals that wanted to eat you. But as we learn more about them, their biology and behaviors, they become more relatable.”

ON COMMON SENSE Unless you live on Amity Island, you’re extremely unlikely to be attacked by a shark

F

or centuries, sharks have been typecast by Hollywood as bogeymen of the deep in films like Jaws and even on some of the shows that air as part of Discovery Channel’s popular weeklong Shark Week series that airs every summer. “By showing sharks jumping out of the water and biting seals, they’re perpetuating fear, and that’s what people get in their heads,” says biologist Stephen Kajiura, director of Florida Atlantic University’s Elasmobranch Research Laboratory. “This media coverage focuses on the sensational, the dramatic, the killer shark aspect rather than how cool they are just as themselves.”

The fact is, Florida Museum’s International Shark Attack File reported just 26 (nonfatal) shark bites throughout the Sunshine State in 2021. The majority of those occurred in surf-happy Volusia County, followed by Brevard and Palm Beach.

When sharks do bite, says Kajiura, “it’s because they make a mistake. We’re not their natural prey, but they may confuse a reflection on someone’s hand for baitfish or a surfer for a seal.”

Sharks are always patrolling for their next meal, so they follow fish close to the shoreline—which explains why most brushes with sharks happen within a few feet of the beach. A popular time for shark bites in Florida is during the fall, when huge schools of mullet migrate along the eastern coastline in anticipation of spawning offshore. When the water is churned up, swimmers can easily be mistaken for these baitfish.

To mitigate a harmful encounter, says Kajiura, follow three simple rules: Avoid murky water, don’t wear jewelry (it can attract sharks), and don’t thrash around, as sharks associate this movement with a wounded or struggling fish. Kajiura also recommends swimming in view of a lifeguard tower so that, worst-case scenario, you can get help quickly.

HABITAT DESTRUCTION The Treasure Coast’s proximity to the Gulf Stream makes it a haven for transient and pregnant sharks that use its estuarine and offshore areas for protection, hunting for food, and giving birth to their pups. It’s also home to several The late (former Florida Representative) Kristin threatened and endangered species, Jacobs and Representative Toby Overdorf including great hammerheads.

But, like manatees and sea turtles, these sharks are struggling with issues like habitat loss and waters polluted with harmful toxins.

Representative Toby Overdorf wants to change that. A former biologist who has worked closely with sharks, one of his most notable accomplishments was getting Bill 680 to the governor’s desk. “At the time, [then Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives] José Oliva wanted to see this to the finish line,” says Overdorf.

“He recognized Kristin Jacobs had done a lot of work on the bill, but because of her health, she wasn’t able to work it as she wanted to. Oliva asked me to make it happen, so I met with Kristin and those opposing the bill, and we were able to get the bill in a good position to get passed.”

Now Overdorf is focused on cleaning up the St. Lucie River and other water systems where seagrass is suffering. The submerged flowering plants make significant contributions to marine ecosystems, including maintaining water quality, preventing erosion, and curbing global warming through carbon absorption. It

YOU CAN GET INFORMATION ON MICROPLASTICS AND CONTAMINANTS FROM [SHARKS’] BLOOD AND MUSCLE, WHICH WAS A REALLY GOOD TOOL TO ARGUE AGAINST THE FIN TRADE.” — Hannah Medd

THE TAKEAWAY The bottom line, say experts, is that without sharks, ocean life would become unbalanced—and the world would be a drastically different place. “Sharks perform a great service by keeping our fish stock healthy and the seas free of sick and injured animals,” says Overdorf.

Biologist Stephen Kajiura, director of FAU’s Elasmobranch Research Laboratory, agrees. “The ramifications [of the shark population being wiped out] would be terrifying because they affect the ecosystem on so many levels,” he says, noting that when fish die, they leave behind algae and bacteria that consume the ocean’s reefs, causing them to die too. ❖

is also the main food source of manatees, which are experiencing their own population trauma.

Collaborating with FAU Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute in Fort Pierce, Overdorf is working on a bill that would minimize the lengthy permit process to transplant seagrass in the Indian River Lagoon.

A separate bill would necessitate companies to cover restoration costs for any damages their projects may cause to state-managed bodies of water like the lagoon, which substitutes as a nursery for bull sharks and many other species.

S

hark diving is an increasingly popular pastime, but it’s important to consider only dives that are well-managed and put safety first. “I’m in favor of shark diving because it raises awareness,” says biologist Stephen Kajiura. If a shark does swim up to a person, he says, “it usually takes a look, then swims away. We’re just not very interesting to them, which is why they leave us alone.”

In collaboration with the American Shark Conservancy and the Fin Alliance, Shark Addicts in Jupiter hosts a diving experience called “Sharks and Lasers” that provides an exciting experience for divers while gathering research at the same time ($219/person, sharkaddictsdiving.com). Seasoned divers are equipped with GoPro cameras that collect size, age, reproduction status, and other measurements.

The information is used to implement new policies.

Swimming with (some species of) sharks can also help alleviate the fear many people have of sharks—especially children. While tagging sharks in Florida’s Big Pine Key, Representative Toby Overdorf taught shark education at Newfound Harbor Marine Institute. “Kids came from around the country to understand more about our oceans and take a shark class,” he says. After they learned fundamentals like shark biology, the kids went kickboarding and snorkeling with bonnetheads, nurse sharks, and other aquatic life.

“They saw that they were perfectly fine and weren’t threatened,” says Overdorf. “I was proud to be a part of changing our future generation’s thinking about sharks.”

Upgrade your next outdoor soiree with help from The Pretty Picnic.

Picnic PERFECT

T

he idea to launch The Pretty Picnic was born during the pandemic, says founder Gladys Prieto. “People were more comfortable being outside, and I was looking for a creative outlet,” she says of her event company that specializes in styling and catering luxury picnics across South Florida.

She comes from a financial background but wanted to use her interior design talents to create memorable events. In a typical month, Prieto says she organizes more than 100 outdoor picnics at venues ranging from clients’ backyards to local parks and beaches. Themes may be as simple as an intimate

brunch or date night or as elaborate as a bridal shower, bachelorette party, or birthday bash. The company takes care of everything to allow clients to enjoy a worry-free experience.

The picnics all include a grazing board for guests featuring a variety of cheeses, seasonal fruits, and crackers, plus sparkling or still water and juices. Optional charcuterie or brunch board upgrades are also available. Says Prieto: “You can dine at the best restaurant, but this way, you get to enjoy the outdoors and have a beautiful experience with family and friends.” theprettypicnic.com; 561.599.1459 MARCH 2022 | JUPITER

Mark your calendar for Jupiter Irish Fest, which will feature a full day of authentic Irish food, beer, live music, whiskey tastings, and more.

FESTIVE Fete EAT, DRINK, AND BE MERRY AT JUPITER’S QUINTESSENTIAL IRISH FESTIVAL

I

f you’re only going to be Irish one day a year, make the most of it. David McGovern wants to help you do just that.

Originally from Dublin, McGovern came to the United States in 2001 and now works as a lieutenant with Tequesta Fire Rescue. He’s also the founder of the Jupiter Irish Fest, which provides a complete immersion into Irish culture. Now in its second year, the festival takes place March 11-12 at the Abacoa Amphitheater.

“This has been a dream of mine for years,” says McGovern.

“There are many people in America with Irish roots who have never been to their home country. My goal is to bring Ireland to them. Eventually, I hope to build one of the biggest Irish festivals in Florida.”

The two-day event is underscored by traditional Irish food

McCarthy’s Irish Pub and Where: Abacoa Amphitheater, Restaurant in Tequesta.

Jupiter Guests can enjoy classics Tickets: $10 via Eventbrite; free such as Kerry lamb pie, admission for veterans, first recorned beef sliders, fish sponders, and children under 12 and chips, shepherd’s pie, and an Irish Reuben (corned beef on grilled rye with coleslaw, Swiss cheese, and Thousand Island dressing).

The star of the show is usually Brendon McCarthy’s chicken pot pie—a family recipe passed down for more than 70 years.

He estimates he has served more than 700,000 of them during his restaurant career. “Today, people think of chicken pot pie as a frozen dish,” he says. “We serve the vegetables on the side so they remain fresh and crisp. It’s the ultimate comfort food, with a savory gravy and a layer of puff pastry on top.”

There will also be a full bar at the festival, with an assortment of ales, and guests can sample a flight of three Irish whiskies for $10. Guinness is a sponsor, and trained bartenders will be on hand to teach you how to pour the perfect pint.

Entertainment begins on Friday with a battle of the bands between the Greater Boston Firefighters Pipes and Drums and the Palm Beach County Pipes and Drums. Other performers include traditional Irish vocalist Tracy Sands, local band Rogue Theory, the Tir Na Gri Greine Irish dancers, and several bands flying in from Ireland. Saturday’s happenings will include a hurling demonstration by the Gaelic Athletic Association.

“I’ve made a great life here, but I still miss Ireland every day,” says McGovern. “This event is an opportunity to show pride in where I was born and to leave a legacy for others.” jupiteririshfest.com

A Selection of Area Restaurants AMERICAN

TIMELESS Classic

B

rendon McCarthy, owner of McCarthy’s Irish Pub and Restaurant in Tequesta, grew up in the restaurant business. He started working as a dishwasher at his parents’ restaurant when he was 9, and he has preserved his family recipes for a new generation of diners. The chicken pot pie—one of McCarthy’s most popular dishes at the pub—is a legacy from his grandfather Arthur Watson, who fed troops in the Royal Air Force during World War II. The recipe hasn’t changed much in 75 years, though McCarthy admits that diners back then were far less concerned with butter and cream. “The dish is loaded with chicken,” he says, “but the gravy is the star.”

McCARTHY’S CHICKEN POT PIE [Serves 4]

INGREDIENTS 2 whole 3 lb. chickens Chicken base Roux (recipe below) White pepper and salt 4 cups fresh peas 2 cups diced carrots Puff pastry (Pillsbury recommended) DIRECTIONS Boil chickens until meat is cooked thoroughly. Pick off all the white and dark meat and put aside. Run stock and bones through a strainer and save for the gravy. Make a roux by combining one or two cups of all-purpose flour and one pound of butter. Bring stock to a boil, add two tablespoons chicken base, and mix roux into the stock until gravy reaches desired consistency. Add a small amount of white pepper and salt to taste. Steam carrots and peas and add to gravy right before serving. Roll out puff pastry, cut into desired size square, and bake 45 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Combine chicken and gravy and serve with hot puffed pastry square. mccarthyspub.net
