On Saturday 10th December, researchers onboard Undersea Explorer tagged a 2.8m male Tiger Shark ("Adam") near Raine Island in Far North Queensland. The shark was the seventh Tiger shark tagged during the project, which is a collaboration between Digital Dimensions, CSIRO, and Undersea Explorer. And—very exciting: for all of us out here on the web, Adam’s movements can be tracked online.
