Great white sharks still active in the Mediterranean.
Great white sharks could be breeding again in the Mediterranean.
The belief comes after a juvenile great white shark was found by fishermen off the Eastern coast of Spain.
The shark, measuring about 210cm and weighing between 80kg and 90kg, was incidentally captured.
The species was previously thought to have disappeared from the Mediterranean other than individuals from other seas roaming there.
The review suggests that while the Mediterranean great white shark remains a so-called “ghost” population, it has not disappeared from the region.
The species is currently listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List, with numbers continuing to decline.
