New Research Shows Lights Deter Great White Sharks

Recent research from Macquarie University reveals that underwater lights can effectively deter Great White sharks, potentially enhancing safety for ocean swimmers and surfers. The study highlights that the illumination disrupts the sharks’ hunting strategies, making them less likely to approach brightly lit areas. This finding could inform future safety measures and technologies aimed at reducing shark interactions in popular beach zones, offering new insights for marine safety while raising awareness about shark behavior in coastal environments.
