The sharks have taken up taken up residence in the National Zoological Gardens of South Africa in Pretoria for two years where they will act as ambassadors for their species. We collected the sharks as pups in November 2006 off the Eastern Cape (approximately 60km south of East London). They were displayed in the Oceans of Contrast: Atlantic Ocean Gallery until they outgrew this space and then were moved to a holding facility within the I&J Predator Exhibit. They will be released back into the ocean after their two-year inland visit.
