Frequency of male and female sand tigers Carcharias taurus encountered by (A) ST1 and (B) ST2 between September 2012 and July 2013. Size classes for sand tigers encountered are fork lengths rounded to the nearest 25 cm bin between 75–225+ cm. Size and sex distribution of tagged population (TP) represents the size class and sex at time of tagging of all sand tigers in the Atlantic Cooperative Telemetry (ACT) Network potentially carrying acoustic tags during this study. Symbols represent significant differences between the M:F ratio (●), and the ratio of sand tigers in each size class (+) of encountered sand tigers and sand tigers carrying tags in the ACT Network. All sand tigers were detected for at least two consecutive hours. The mean (black points) and range (grey vertical bars) consecutive hours detected throughout the year for individual sand tigers detected by (C) ST1 and (D) ST2 are displayed.
