A scientific center in Kuwait succeeded in breeding the endangered sand tiger shark, and caring for newborns according to a strategy that ensured their proper growth.
The Scientific Center of the Kuwait Foundation for the Advancement of Sciences is one of the few centers in the world that has achieved this, according to Al-Qabas newspaper.
To celebrate the achievement, the center held a press conference to see baby sharks, which have become part of the “sand tiger” shark group that the center has owned for more than 20 years, and which is one of the most popular marine life for visitors to the center.
The famous “Baby” shark, whose age is estimated to be more than 20 years, according to the center’s records, gave birth to two young “sand tigers” on January 23, 2022 in the marine life aquarium at the Scientific Center, one male and the other female, and the two young sharks were named “Badr and Badria”, according to the vote that fans of the Scientific Center decided on his Instagram channel.
