About this shark

This shark was caught on the east side of Andros, Bahamas, and is the beautiful animal in the images featured.

About this adoption

This shark is female, measures a total length of 97cm, 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!

General Information

Lemon sharks are born at around 65cm in length, and grow to upwards of 300cm. We are fortunate to work with the full size range, and offer you the chance to name one of the small social nuggets or one of the beautiful independent adults.
