His latest ping on October 17 placed him ~201 miles off Newfoundland’s southeast coast. Could these offshore waters be an important foraging ground for adult white sharks? Baker’s extended stay is giving researchers more data to help understand how white sharks use this area.

🦈 HOW DO WE TRACK A SHARK WHEN THE PINGS GO QUIET? “By combining satellite tracking with acoustic detections, we can piece together a much more complete picture of Ormond’s movements,” says OCEARCH Senior Data Analyst John Tyminski.
