Model 62B - Shortfin Mako Shark - Mesh only

This is a 3D animation of a subadult Shortfin Mako Shark (Isurus oxyrinchus). This is a composite shark model that was reconstructed using a combination of photographs and video from Joe Romeiro, and also referenced against a 3D photogrammetry scan of a subadult Mako shark (provided by Joshua Moyer). We thank the Atlantic Shark Institute (Jon Dodd) and the Cape Eleuthera Institute (Nathan Robinson and Edd Brooks) for supporting and facilitating creation of the model. Nathan Robinson is now at Oceanogràfic. CG artist Robert Gutierrez reconstructed this shark from photographs and other information using the open-access software Blender.
