Illegal fishing is pushing great white sharks in the Mediterranean to the brink of extinction. Researchers found over 40 great whites killed this year alone, with some ending up for sale in North African fish markets—even though it’s totally illegal. The team tried to tag a shark for research but couldn’t even find one. The scariest part? If we don’t act fast, these iconic predators could vanish from the Med for good. Wild, right? #Science #GreatWhiteShark #Mediterranean
