Scientists bring to life nearly 100 baby sharks through artificial insemination Sharks are as fascinating as they are endangered, and scientists have been sounding the alarm on the rate at which shark populations are declining. Sixteen out of 31 oceanic shark species are now critically endangered or endangered, a study published in the journal Nature found earlier this year. The number of oceanic sharks and rays in the world has declined by 71% from 1970 to 2018, the researchers observed. Now, scientists have been able to use artificial insemination to bring 97 baby sharks to life, a new study published in Scientific Reports revealed, in what a release describes as the “largest-ever effort to artificially inseminate sharks.” ....

Sixteen out of 31 oceanic shark species are now critically endangered or endangered, a study published in the journal Nature found earlier this year. The number of oceanic sharks and rays in the world has declined by 71 per cent from 1970 to 2018, the researchers observed. Now, scientists have been able to use artificial insemination to bring 97 shark pups to life, a new study published in Scientific Reports revealed, in what a release describes as the largest-ever effort to artificially inseminate sharks. ....
