The record for the fastest time i which and known marine animal has been tracked completing a return migration an entire ocean, is nine months and belongs to a great white shark that swam approximately 12,400 miles. On 7 November 2003, a team of researchers led by Dr ramon bonfil from the wildlife conversation society (USA) electronically tagged four sharks in south Africa, one of whom was nick-named Nicole( after the Australian actress and shark-lover, Nicole Kidman). In august 2004, Nicole was identified off the coast of south Africa, yet her timed-release tag was recovered in Australia six months earlier in February, where a satellite recorded its transmission. Thus within nine months, Nicole had swam from south Africa to Australia and back and in doing so completed the first - and the longest - recorded journey of a shark, crossing an entire ocean back and fourth.
