Great white shark Kara, tracked from California, reached Vancouver Island in March 2026, a rare northern sighting linked to prey and climate shifts.
A mature female great white shark named Kara, tracked since being tagged off California in October 2025, was detected near Vancouver Island in March 2026, marking a rare northern sighting.
Measuring about five meters and weighing 1,000 kilograms, Kara is the first shark in the study to reach British Columbia waters, though great whites have been seen in the region before.
Researchers believe her movement may be linked to prey availability, such as increasing seal and sea lion populations, and suggest climate-driven shifts in marine ecosystems could lead to more frequent northern sightings.
While such movements are uncommon, scientists emphasize the importance of tracking data for understanding migration, breeding patterns, and conservation needs.
