  • Researchers Ian Bouyoucos and Cam Raguse test whether a lemon shark pup (Negaprion brevirostris) had been previously tagged at the Cape Eleuthera Insitute in The Bahamas. Lemon shark pups spend the first 5-8 years of their life in mangrove forests. The tangle of roots provides protection from predators like large sharks and is full of potential prey like juvenile fish and crabs. Lemon sharks are the first species of shark proven to practice natal philopatry where the mother will return to the same area she was born in to give birth. Mangroves are being lost at unsustainable rates thanks to coastal development.

  • Researcher Ian Bouyoucos of the Cape Eleuthera Institute (CEI) releases a lemon shark pup into his temporary enclosure. One of the leading causes of shark mortality is as bycatch in longline fisheries. The team at the CEI are looking at physiological and behavioural responses to being caught with the hopes of establishing 'best practice' guidelines for releasing sharks from long lines.
