C-sectioning a shark.
SeaWorld vets perform first-ever shark C-section
SeaWorld Orlando announced Tuesday morning that its veterinarians had successfully completed a Cesarean section on a shark, the first time procedure has ever been performed on one of the ocean predators.
The C-section was conducted July 18 on a whitetip reef shark at Discovery Cove, the limited-admission boutique theme park
SeaWorld said its vets had noticed a "complication" with the shark's pregnancy six months into its gestation and determined that the procedure was necessary. The shark gave birth to four healthy pups, each weighing less than 3 pounds and about 2 feet in length.
SeaWorld said the mother shark and pups are doing well, both eating and behaving normally.
