Hawaiian Monk Seal of the Month - "Sharkbite"
T15M (Sharkbite) is an adult, untagged male, and was first seen as an adult at the time in 1987 on Laysan, located in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. He is one of the 1994 trans-located seals. His markers are a missing right fore flipper (it was already missing in 1987), and a large Tiger Shark scar on his right side, posterior.
