Shark Spotted in Trieste Port: A Reminder of Adriatic Biodiversity

A small shark was spotted in the port of Trieste on May 13, 2025, causing a stir among locals and visitors. The shark, seemingly healthy, swam near the coast without showing any aggression. Experts from the local marine biology institute confirmed that such sightings are not uncommon during spring, when sharks might be drawn closer to the shore by food or other environmental factors. "During the spring, it's not unusual to see these animals near the coast," explained one expert. Authorities reassured the public that there was no danger to bathers as the animal is known to be shy and avoid human contact. The video highlights the importance of responsible observation of marine life, urging viewers to maintain a safe distance and avoid disturbing the animal. The incident serves as a reminder of the rich biodiversity of the Adriatic Sea and the need for respectful coexistence with marine wildlife.
