Electromagnetic fish hook reduces accidentally catching sharks

Scientists have developed a "Selective Magnetic and Repellent-Treated" fish hook. It's coated with a metal that produces an electrical current when placed in seawater. The hook's magnetic features interfere with the highly sensitive electrical senses in a shark's nose, causing them to stay away while other species of fish still…

Ghost shark filmed alive in the ocean for the first time
