SHARK TRACK

Tracking Porirua's rig sharks

.

Migration underway

15th September, 2014

Removing the net from a rig shark before tracking, 2013.

Thousands of rig sharks are on their way to Porirua Harbour, when they get there I will be waiting to tag and track them.

Will they behave like the rig sharks I tracked last year and spend most of their time in the fast-flowing channels? Or will they prefer the wide basins with no currents and plenty of crabs? I’m looking forward to finding out.
