A super-healing shark regrew a section of its fin after suffering a traumatic injury at the hands of humans near Jupiter in Florida, researchers have found.
The silky shark (Carcharhinus falciformis) had a satellite tag fitted to its dorsal fin in June 2022 so researchers could track its migration. A few weeks later, an unknown person cut out the tag and left the shark with a devastating wound. Local diver John Moore saw the shark's tag was missing and contacted the researchers.
