In Search of Shark DNA
We all have heard about DNA tests, but have you ever heard of these tests being performed on sharks? Well, in honor of Shark Week scientists have been taking to the water to try and solve the mystery behind the genetics of sharks.
Just in case you wanted to know who their great ancestors where. These tests will also help scientists study and protect sharks in the near future. With some sharks easier to tag than others, these sharks are among the most dangerous to attempt the tagging process on.
One by one the scientists take on the challenge and risk their lives in order to provide protection for these creatures. Would you be willing to risk getting bitten all for a DNA test? Let us know in the comments box below!
