About this shark

This shark was caught in 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 ~260cm, 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

We rarely catch bull sharks, but when we do encounter them, we take a moment to appreciate these incredibly intelligent and powerful animals up close. Often portrayed as the bad guys, these sharks have been saddled with an undeservedly negative reputation. We, of course, adore them. If you’d like to adopt a large, very impressive shark with heaps of personality, a bull shark would be the perfect adoption for you.

On adoption we’ll provide rough information on your shark’s location/s, however we will not be able to share exact data or location points.
