Australian researchers are tracking 50 deep sea sharks in efforts to ensure the protection of vulnerable species. More than 200 sharks have been caught in a marine-protected area off the South Australian coast and tagged with acoustic devices. Scientists will use listening stations to track the sharks for the next three years to work out if they stay within a protected zone.
