Sharks return to reef in surprise sign of recovery

Original: I ask Jenkins what the most surprising type of sea life to return to the reef has been. He mentions the men in the grey

In an interview, reef restoration figure Jenkins described the most surprising sea life returning to the reef: sharks. He called the comeback of juvenile whitetip reef sharks a great surprise, noting that larger sharks are now seen swimming around the reef day and night, a sign the ecosystem is recovering.

Why now: The return of apex predators like sharks is being read as strong evidence that reef rewilding efforts are working.
