Miss May, one of OCEARCH's newly tagged white sharks, has been keeping those tracking her on their toes.

Since Feb. 15, the day she was tagged by the shark research and advocacy group, Miss May has "pinged" — which means the satellite tracker attached to her dorsal fin breaks the surface of the water — more than a dozen times.

Her latest ping was 8:44 a.m. Thursday. She also surfaced at 6:19 p.m. Wednesday off Port St. Lucie.

Miss May is a sub-adult white shark about 10 feet long. She weighs 800 pounds.

OCEARCH is on the final day of Expedition NASFA (Northwest Atlantic Shared Foraging Area), and it's been a busy three weeks of tagging and scientific sampling.

Besides Miss May, OCEARCH tagged Helena, a 12-foot female, near St. Helena Island in South Carolina on Feb. 22. The crew also had a successful day Wednesday when scientists sampled two more white sharks — one is a male, Brunswick, at 8 feet, 9 inches — and three tiger sharks.
