The article "First satellite track of a juvenile shortfin mako shark (Isurus oxyrinchus) in the Mediterranean Sea" published in Frontiers in Marine Science discusses the movement patterns of a juvenile shortfin mako shark tagged in the Mediterranean Sea. The study highlights the threats faced by shortfin mako sharks due to overfishing and the capture of juvenile sharks in the region. The research reveals the shark's extensive horizontal and vertical movements, shedding light on the potential nursery areas and conservation implications for the species in the Mediterranean. The study emphasizes the need for further tagging efforts and international cooperation to protect the declining populations of large sharks in the region. [Extracted from the article] |
