About this shark
This shark was caught in Andros, Bahamas, and is the beautiful animal in the images featured.
About this adoption
This shark is female, measures a stretch total length of ~310cm, and was fitted with both a PIT and SPOT tag.
A PIT tag does not transmit signals, but is scanned by researchers during a recapture, just like the tags used in pets.
Your shark was fitted with a 9 month- 1 year SPOT (Smart Position or Temperature Transmitting) tag, aka Satellite tag! The SPOT tag records and stores water temperature and transmits to Argos satellites each time the shark surfaces giving us a location.
In exchange for this adoption donation, you will have the privilege of naming her, you’ll receive an electronic adoption certificate, and we’ll excitedly reach out to you with regular updates as your shark surfaces (which provides us with his/her latest movements/location!).
General Information
Hammerheads are arguably one of the world’s most charismatic shark species. These endangered sharks demand attention in the water with their captivating, powerful presence, so, if you’re looking for a big, beautiful, and bold shark to adopt, hammerheads are the ones for you!
