Is the Warming North Sea Drawing Great White Sharks Closer?

The idea of great white sharks appearing in the North Sea sounds dramatic, even unlikely. For decades, these predators have been associated with colder, deeper waters far from Northern Europe. But as ocean temperatures shift, questions about changing marine patterns are becoming harder to ignore.

Scientists tend to approach this topic cautiously.

Temperature alone does not rewrite migration patterns overnight, but it can gradually reshape ecosystems in ways that open new possibilities.
