GREAT RESPECT FOR GREAT WHITES
"When you handle an animal of this size it will hit you in a completely different way from an emotional standpoint" - Chris Fischer, OCEARCH Expedition Leader on 3,541 pound 17'2" great white shark "Nukumi" (pronounced noo-goo-mee) "You feel this awareness and respect for the animal, its wisdom, what it's done to provide for us all. A deep level of respect."

OCEARCH is a non-profit organization conducting unprecedented research on our ocean's giants. The OCEARCH science team was able to tag, sample, and release beautiful white shark Nukumi, and she will provide more data for 21 collaborative research projects along with seven other white sharks tagged during Expedition Nova Scotia. Expedition Nova Scotia is the 39th research expedition for OCEARCH.

Nukumi is the largest great white that OCEARCH has studied in the Northwest Atlantic study to date. #FactsOverFear
