is one heck of a wanderer. Scientists are learning she is quite a teacher too.
Rio Lady is unique and has a long relationship with her observers. She first was tagged by a team of researchers in August 2007 near Isla Mujeres, an island off the coast of Cancun, Mexico, on the northeastern tip of the Yucatan Peninsula. Rio Lady, when she was first encountered, had a huge girth, leading the team that tagged her to believe she was pregnant. They used a satellite pop-off tag designed to detach after five months. The tag popped off 5,000 miles away, in the southern Atlantic Ocean between Brazil and Africa.Researchers believe she went there to give live birth in deep waters to an estimated 200 to 300 pups that grew from eggs inside her.
