Giant Shark Catch Breaks Record, Causes Outrage

Wednesday, 05 June 2013 | by Pat's Picks

Six men in California managed to reel in the largest mako shark ever caught by line, says the LA Times. But the catch, which was filmed as part of a reality show for the Outdoor Channel, has conservationists in a tizzy, who say the men should have reeled in the 1,323.5-pound fish and then released it. Scientists, on the other hand, say they are excited to examine the fish up close, especially since it appears to be pregnant.
