USA TODAY - A wildlife filmmaker and a biology student believe they may have captured the first-ever footage of a newborn great white shark.
Carlos Gauna, a wildlife filmmaker, and Phillip Sternes, a UC Riverside biology doctoral student, used a drone to film a 5-foot-long white shark swimming 1,300 feet off the coast of Carpinteria, California, when they made the discovery on July 9, 2023, according to a statement from the university.
