Shark first time in Antarctica's lens
Appearance of a large specimen in icy waters
A shark was seen for the first time by a camera in the cold waters of Antarctica. Experts estimate its size was 3–4 meters. Previously, it was believed that sharks do not occur in such southern regions, but this sighting calls these assumptions into question. The photograph was taken using a video camera installed within a research sensor.
Context
Previously, scientists believed that the cold waters of Antarctica could not support shark life, but new research shows they are capable of surviving in such conditions.
A scientific discovery — a large shark in Antarctica, 3-4 meters in size — confirms that such fish can inhabit the coldest seas.
