Researchers at the Morris Kahn Station are working to determine the circumstances of its death.<\/p>\n<p data-v-aef5fdcb=\"\" data-v-e580db1b-s=\"\">The shark was found dead near the Hadera power plant. The findings indicate that the shark died as a result of entanglement in fishing lines and a large fishing hook.<\/p>\n<p data-v-aef5fdcb=\"\" data-v-e580db1b-s=\"\">The report on the finding was received at the Morris Kahn Station for Sea Research and at the Israel Nature and Parks Authority&#8217;s marine unit from the Sharks In Israel nonprofit. Dr. Livne, who leads shark reproduction research, found the shark with a large fishing hook in its mouth, attached to a metal cable approximately 2.5 meters long and a nylon rope about 100 meters long.<\/p>\n<p data-v-aef5fdcb=\"\" data-v-e580db1b-s=\"\">Under the researchers&#8217; guidance, the team removed the shark from the water and transferred it for a post-mortem examination. During the autopsy, performed by Dr. Livne and Naama Alon, a student in the Department of Biotechnologies and Sustainable Marine Agriculture, it was found to be a dusky shark measuring 3.17 meters in length and weighing about 200 kilograms. The shark was pregnant, with seven pups in her womb, four males and three females.<\/p>\n<p data-v-aef5fdcb=\"\" data-v-e580db1b-s=\"\">The autopsy found a hook lodged in the shark&#8217;s stomach with a fresh fish, likely used as bait for fishing. The evidence indicates the use of heavy fishing gear used for deep-sea fishing.<\/p>\n<p data-v-aef5fdcb=\"\" data-v-e580db1b-s=\"\">Following the incident, the Israel Nature and Parks Authority emphasized that shark populations in the Mediterranean are in significant decline and are protected as a natural resource in Israel. There is an absolute ban on harming or disturbing sharks, and anyone who violates the law risks criminal penalties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u05d4\u05d5\u05e6\u05d0\u05ea \u05d4\u05db\u05e8\u05d9\u05e9\u05d4 \u05d4\u05de\u05ea\u05d4 \u05de\u05d4\u05d9\u05dd\u05e6\u05d9\u05dc\u05d5\u05dd \u05d0\u05d9\u05dc\u05d9\u05d4 \u05d1\u05e1\u05e7\u05d9\u05df, \u05e8\u05e9\u05d5\u05ea \u05d4\u05d8\u05d1\u05e2 \u05d5\u05d4\u05d2\u05e0\u05d9\u05dd; \u05e1\u05d8\u05d9\u05dc\u05e1: RAN GOLAN A pregnant dusky shark was found&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":497111,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[223497,223496,159,11539,67,132,68,837],"class_list":{"0":"post-497110","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-wildlife","8":"tag-hadera","9":"tag-nature-and-parks-authority","10":"tag-science","11":"tag-shark","12":"tag-united-states","13":"tag-unitedstates","14":"tag-us","15":"tag-wildlife"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115849636266347085","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/497110","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=497110"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/497110\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/497111"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=497110"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=497110"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=497110"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
