According to the British "Mirror" report on July 12, divers recently discovered mako sharks near the coastline of Barcelona, Spain. This is the first time in 10 years. The mako shark is the fastest shark in the world, reaching speeds of 69 kilometers per hour. This shark can grow to about 4.6 meters long.
underwater photographer David Jara captured this spectacular sight. He told local media: "We saw a big black shadow moving in the water and felt a little confused. But suddenly, we saw something coming out of the sea. At first we thought it was a sunfish, But soon we noticed its dorsal fin . Then we slowly approached it, keeping a safe distance from it, and it came close to the boat. "
This shark is about 2.4. Meters long, it looked peaceful and showed no signs of injury. Marine biologist Claudio Barria said the discovery was a "good sign" for the Mediterranean ecosystem as the species is critically endangered, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Experts believe that these large predators are a key component of marine life, regulating the abundance of various other species and helping to maintain the balance of marine ecosystems.
While the speed, strength and size of mako sharks make them perfectly capable of killing humans, they generally do not attack humans and do not regard humans as prey. Most of the recent shark attacks on humans have been caused by being harassed or caught on fishing lines . (Compiled and reported by China Youth Network)
