Model 9A - Blacktip Shark

3D Model

This is a 3D animation of a Blacktip shark (Carcharhinus limbatus, ID 730) captured in April 2016 in collaboration with the Discovery Channel and Dr. Neil Hammerschlag at the Universiy of Miami. The shark was captured, photographed with the Beastcam technology, and released unharmed. 3D artist Robert Gutierrez converted the raw photogrammetry scan to this low-poly model, as well as animated it.

Both low and high-resolution models will be made freely available for creative and non-profit use upon request. For this, and to inquire about licensing, visit www.digitallife3d.org for more information.
