A large basking shark, measuring around nine metres, washed ashore in Lubec, Maine, yesterday (September 2) at 5am. Despite the efforts of ten locals, who spent several hours gathering water in buckets and pouring it over the shark’s gills in an attempt to keep it alive, the animal later died. Sharks are a group of fish characterized by a cartilaginous skeleton, five to seven gill slits on the sides of the head, and pectoral fins that are not fused to the head. There are more than 465 known species of sharks living in our oceans today. Sharks are an apex predator at or near the top of their marine food chains, and they regulate the populations of species below them. Research has shown that massive depletion of sharks has cascading effects throughout the ocean’s ecosystems.
