Percy is a white shark being tracked on the OCEARCH Global Shark Tracker. Each time his tag pings, scientists gain new insights into shark migration, behavior, and the role these apex predators play in keeping the ocean balanced. By following Percy’s movements, researchers can better understand the habitats white sharks rely on and the importance of protecting those ecosystems. His journey adds to the growing body of open-source data that drives shark conservation and helps secure a healthier fu

Hey OCEARCH Crew! 🌊 Ever wondered how our Global Shark Tracker works — or why sometimes it looks like a shark swims across land? Each shark carries a SPOT tag that connects to the Argos satellite system, but they only ping when they come to the surface. That means there can be gaps in time and space between pings. If those pings are near a peninsula or coastline, the Tracker draws a straight line between them — even if it cuts across land. We don’t “guess” the route — we show you the real data.

We can give you a glimpse of OCEARCH Sharkives: Chapter 25… but the full story lives exclusively inside Tracker . Unlock the episode and more now. Plus, dive into the moments we can’t show anywhere else. 🌊🦈 | OCEARCH
