Check out the size of a tooth from the extinct megalodon compared to a tooth from a white shark. What a difference!

Our #SharkWeek Big Shark Countdown wouldn’t be complete without Amy. At over 16-feet long she was also one of the girthiest sharks we’ve ever tagged. Her tracks helped reveal a white shark nursery in the Gulf of California.

Introducing @MissMay_Shark , the first white shark tagged during #ExpeditionNASFA . The 10-foot shark is named after Mayport, FL, which will be the site of a joint @JacksonvilleU and OCEARCH facility and our permanent home.

This large white shark spotted yesterday by @MyFWC scientists about 25 miles off the coast of St. Augustine, FL is a good sign for our next expedition kicking off out of Jacksonville in less than 2 weeks.
