Article Summary:

Marine Conservation Science Institute (MCSI) has released an iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad app that tracks adult white sharks in real-time. The team at MCSI has been tagging sharks which can the be tracked via the app although positions for the tagged sharks can only be calculated when a shark is at the surface with its dorsal fin out of the water for several minutes. The app also includes video of sharks being tagged, detailed histories of tagged sharks, a game and information about shark attacks and the prevention of them.

The app is available for $3.99 on iTunes.
