Abstract

The article reports that animal scientists at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, California, have successfully preserved a white shark. Animal scientists tried to make the transfer of the white shark as stress-free as possible. Though the world's aquariums are stocked with many of the other 386 species of shark, no one has successfully exhibited a great white for longer than 16 days. White sharks have always been rare and reproduce slowly.
