Think you got a long trip ahead? Think again:
Scientists writing in the journal Science this month had wondered how far great white sharks roam as they swim up and down South Africa’s coast and whether they venture beyond it. An international team tagged the dorsal fins of 32 great whites and tracked them by satellite over 15 months. Although most of the sharks stayed fairly close to home, one female zoomed across the entire 12,400-mile breadth of the Indian Ocean to the coast of Australia, and back again, in a scant nine months. And now the question is: Why?
Why? Because even sharks know that variety is the spice of life?
