News summary

In a surprising discovery, scientists found broadnose sevengill and critically endangered soupfin sharks in Washington's inland waters, far from their usual oceanic habitats. This unusual find was first noticed in 2021 when a fisherman posted a photo online, leading to further investigation and confirming the presence of these sharks in the Salish Sea. Meanwhile, paddleboarders in Scotland spotted a massive 10-meter basking shark near Lendalfoot Beach, capturing footage that reassured beachgoers of its harmless nature. Basking sharks, which migrate to Scottish waters during summer, are the second largest fish globally. In Cape Cod, three shark sightings led to temporary beach closures, though no sharks were confirmed and swimming resumed shortly after. Such sightings underline the need for caution and awareness in coastal areas frequented by both humans and marine life.
