Remember Tasha the blue shark tagged back in July with Chippy from FV Bite Adventures, The Fish Locker and our project partners at NOAA Fisheries, the University of Exeter, the Marine Biological Association, the University of York, the Shark Angling Club of Great Britain and the Pat Smith Database?

Well, here she is! Below, you can see a track of her satellite tag pings off the coast of France since we tagged her in July. Isn't this great to see?

Thank you so much to the skippers and anglers participating in this huge collaborative tagging effort to understand more about blue sharks in the Northeastern Atlantic and their potential response to climate change.
