Why don’t we see great white sharks in aquariums? Despite decades of attempts, these apex predators have proven nearly impossible to keep in captivity. From early failed experiments to groundbreaking research at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, this episode of Ocean Talks explores the science behind why white sharks don’t thrive in tanks.
We also take a closer look at extremely rare footage of a great white shark in captivity. Join me as we dive into the fascinating history, surprising discoveries, and ethical debates surrounding great white shark captivity.
