The biologists and scientists on board the vessel were studying the effects of a three-year-old oil spill on marine life and found as many as forty-four species of shark on their journey-all alive- throughout the Gulf of Mexico.
Chip Cotton, a Florida State University researcher and part of the expedition, said, quote: "No way is this the only Greenland shark in the Gulf." Which is a good sign for the shark species.
Greenland sharks were never found away from Greenland... Until now. |
