Oregon researchers find 2 shark species new to the Puget Sound
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) -- For the first time, researchers at Oregon State University have documented two shark species that are new to the Puget Sound, including one critically endangered species.
During 10 days of fieldwork in 2022 and 2023, researchers caught 10 sharks belonging to the broadnose sevengill and the endangered soupfin species near Olympia.
According to the researchers, the find could mark changes in the "economically, culturally, and ecologically valuable" waterway.
