Track GWS with phone app!
Thought this was pretty cool, eventually maybe all the sharks will be tagged and you will know if your favorite spot has a visitor coming to town! ( and "who", each shark tagged is named and tracked) Interesting how they tracked one female GWS who went all the way up into Sea of Cortez near San Felipe for spring break, might have been good to know if you were diving the area during that time. Good info nonetheless, even has history of attacks, locations, etc.
The app is "Expedition White Shark"

Re: Track GWS with phone app!
$3.99...........sheesh, wonder where the money goes? MCSI, Marine Conservation Science Institute?
Here is a link to the makers of this app. No doubt the funds go to them. Are the good or bad? It's so hard to tell nowadays who is working for us or against us. I will not be downloading until I make sure they are not the enemy. Anybody know? http://www.marinecsi.org/about-us/ |

Re: Track GWS with phone app!
Really? So you are NOT for Marine Conservation??? Honestly, I just thought this was interesting...as in the science, etc. I'm not promoting buying the app or supporting whoever, but if you look at the partners on the website they all seem legit, as in IGFA, Shark research etc., but who knows?

HAH! Therein lies the rub... lots of trickery out there these days- "marine conservation" is such a vague phrase. Suspicion is healthy in post MLPA world. |

Re: Track GWS with phone app!
