Great White ACK

I'm a 12ft female Great White Shark tagged by @OCEARCH during Expedition Nantucket 2019! Named ACK to honor the people of Nantucket! Follow my adventures!

[Great White ACK @Gr8WhiteACK]

I love spending time in the #OuterBanks of North Carolina. My track has brought me back north near #CapeHatteras and with only Z-pings lately I’m keeping my whereabouts a mystery. It’s a vacation destination after all. #greatwhiteack #ocearch @OCEARCH

💤 PING! Second Z-Ping in a few days... I guess I’m just shy... #greatwhiteACK #sharktracker @OCEARCH

[Great White ACK @Gr8WhiteACK]

I’m still z-pingin’... somewhere in southern waters... where am I going to pop up next? Maybe I’ll pay the @OCEARCH crew a visit during #ExpeditionNASFA2020 Follow me on the new Ocearch Shark Tracker app! #ocearch #sharktracker

[Great White ACK @Gr8WhiteACK]

I’m good at hiding! Late last night I emerged from the deep just long enough to tell you I’m ok but not where I am... that’s my second z-ping on the new @OCEARCH Shark Tracker this month! #zping #shark #sharktracker #ocearch #nasfa 📷: Steven Javitz

New Year, new Pings! It’s almost been a month since I pinged. With the Full Moon coming in just a few days, maybe I’ll surface long enough to check in with all of my @OCEARCH friends! 🦈 #NewYears2020 #ocearch #sharktracker

Right now the NASFA region is lighting up with white shark pings. NASFA stands for Northwest Atlantic Shared Foraging Area.

@OCEARCH This lady is southbound slow and steady. Thanks for keeping up with me @ocearch and shark friends! Follow my tweets for more pings and shark facts! @Gr8WhiteACK

[Great White ACK @Gr8WhiteACK]

@JacqueGonzales @JamieLOsborne @OCEARCH Will ping for chum-tini! That’s how you hook us classy mature sharks🍸

[Great White ACK @Gr8WhiteACK]

Here I am! Headed southbound to join my shark friends in Charleston! Did you know, every time I’ve pinged at the surface it’s been at night? 🦈 @OCEARCH #greatwhiteACK #ack #greatwhite #greatwhiteshark #ocearch #sharktracker #sharks

[Great White ACK @Gr8WhiteACK]

@JamieLOsborne @OCEARCH I’m always on the move! Toss me some blackened saku tuna bites on my way by!

[Great White ACK @Gr8WhiteACK]

I don’t like to steal the show, that’s why I’m laying low. Steady and slow... @OCEARCH #sharktracker #ocearch #greatwhiteshark #sharks

[Great White ACK @Gr8WhiteACK]

My buddy @MurdochtheShark came all the way back up to #Nantucket and now is returning south! I think he’s showing off! @OCEARCH #sharktracker

[Great White ACK @Gr8WhiteACK]

FINALLY I’m southbound! Pulling up right behind @MurdochtheShark but soon to join my Nova Scotia friends @GWSharkCabot , Caper, Shaw and Scotia! @OCEARCH #sharktracker #SaturdayMotivation

[Great White ACK @Gr8WhiteACK]

I’m playing hard to get! While my other shark friends are pinging like it’s their job, I’m concealing my whereabouts... The @OCEARCH #sharktracker suggests I’m still circling Nantucket, but where do you think I reallly am? 🦈😉 | 📷: EUAN RANNACHAN/@euanart

[Great White ACK @Gr8WhiteACK]

Sometimes we sharks get overstimulated by snout contact or electrosensory overload... Like a big sneeze we can’t release! It’s called Repeated/Repetitive Aerial Gaping (RAG)!

Check out this amazing footage filmed on a trip earlier this month of this very curious female shark showing off swimming on her back! Footage by guest Wendy Bower-Leech #portlincoln #sharkdiving #cagediving 🦈

Did you know that my Atlantic overwintering #habitat could be as far south as the Gulf of Mexico, as far east as the Azores, and with daily dives at depths exceeding 3000 ft? #ocearch #sharks #sharktracker #WorldHabitatDay @OCEARCH 📷: Eric Mailander
