Hundreds of Atlantic White Sharks, each with their own names and unique identifiers, have been tracked swimming off the coast of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, over the past nine years.According to research from the 2022 shark season that was released in March, there were 55 new individual Atlantic White Sharks tracked, and 63 returning sharks logged.
Since the AWSC began monitoring this in 2014, the group has identified more than 600 white sharks off Cape Cod. “We use a bunch of different features of the shark to make an ID,” Novak said. “One of the most prominent features are the gills. But caudal fin or the tail fin, the pelvic fin region, as well as the counter shading of the individual shark. And we also use the dorsal fin. So, there's also coloration on the dorsal fin, but also the trailing edge of the dorsal fin. That sometimes has really unique notches or sometimes you'll see larger injuries.
