Another successful satellite tag deployment!
As part of our ongoing shark research efforts we are happy to announce that a second tag has now been successfully attached to a Male Whale Shark near La Paz. This tag will ideally stay attached for 6 months before releasing and supplying us with vital new data. Scientist Deni Ramirez thanks Fins Attached, the Downtown Aquarium, A-1 Scuba and Travel Center, Dr. Alex Antoniou and all the generous divers that have helped fund this ongoing project.
This tag was fully funded by Aquarium shark divers donating shark teeth and shark saver wristbands. Fins Attached has successfully facilitated over 25 tags and deployed multiple tracking receivers for the study and protection of: Galapagos, Hammerhead, Silver tip, Great White and Whale Sharks over the past two years.
