The First Shark Ever Recorded in Antarctica Appeared on Camera

In January 2025, a deep-sea camera captured a sleeper shark cruising 490 meters below the surface in Antarctic waters — the first shark ever recorded this far south. The 10-to-13-foot shark was moving through near-freezing water off the South Shetland Islands, a region experts long believed was too cold for sharks. Researcher Alan Jamieson couldn't find any prior record of a shark in the Antarctic Ocean. The discovery raises questions: Are warming oceans pushing sharks into colder waters, or have they been here unnoticed all along? With so few research cameras operating at these depths and only during summer months, scientists believe there's far more life in Antarctica's deep ocean than we realize. This shark just happened to swim into frame.
