About this shark

This shark was seen on the East side of Andros, The Bahamas, and is the beautiful animal in the images featured.

About this adoption

This shark is female, measures a stretch total length of 335cm, and was fitted with a PIT tag; this type of tag does not transmit signals, but is scanned by researchers during a recapture, just like the tags used in pets. We’ll only get further information on this shark if we or other scientists catch it again. In exchange for this adoption donation, you will have the privilege of naming her, you will receive an adoption certificate, and if we recapture your shark, we will excitedly be in touch with an update!
