Moscow, (EFE).- Fishermen in Russia have spotted great white sharks in the waters off the Russian island of Sakhalin, in the Far East, where they have reportedly migrated due to the effects of climate change.
The video the fishermen recorded shows great white sharks eating their catch of tuna in the Strait of Tartary, between Sakhalin and mainland Russia.
One of the sharks chased one of the Russian vessels and tore off a large chunk of the catch, a bluefin tuna, leaving only the head.
According to local media reports, the sharks may have migrated due to warming waters, which recently reached highs of 25°C in these normally cold waters.
In addition to sharks, the fishermen say they have also seen puffer fish.
A month ago, videos circulated showing North Korean citizens catching two salmon sharks off the same coast. EFE
