#GreatWhiteSharks are overheating
The #sharks might also be most physiologically vulnerable to warming waters.
Several large tuna species and sharks, known as “#mesothermic” species for the way their bodies run hot, require more fuel to maintain their temperature and are thus confronting a “double jeopardy” of warming oceans and declining food, mainly from overfishing. As water temperatures climb, these species will be forced to relocate to cooler waters.
