一段大白鲨现身地中海的视频被记录下来，一些潜水员认为这是该海域首次拍到该物种的水下影像。地中海是大白鲨已知的栖息地，但目击记录极为罕见，且通常仅发生在近水面区域。
幽灵潜水组织的志愿潜水员德克·雷默斯在西西里海峡附近的一次潜水过程中拍摄到了这只鲨鱼。他告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻的合作媒体英国广播公司：“那条鲨鱼离我们非常近……事实上当时我在调试相机时手指都在发抖。”
在另一份声明中，他将此次在远海地中海海域发现鲨鱼称为“不可思议”。
雷默斯当时正在参与“健康海洋”基金会组织的任务，该任务旨在清除水下生物多样性热点区域内被遗弃的渔网和渔具。该组织表示，此前的潜水行动中，他们曾记录到包括海龟在内的多种动物被困在被遗弃的渔具中。

“从统计学角度来看，中乐透头奖都比在水下偶遇这种标志性动物的概率高得多。你花数十年时间打捞沉船、清理幽灵渔网，但从未有过这样的时刻。”雷默斯在一份声明中说道。
他表示，这次偶遇让他更加意识到保护海洋生物免受过度捕捞和被遗弃渔具等威胁的重要性。
自2016年以来，国际自然保护联盟已将地中海海域的大白鲨列为“极危”物种。
Great white shark captured on video in Mediterranean Sea in “insane” sighting

A great white shark has been recorded in the Mediterranean Sea in what some divers believe to be the first underwater video of the species in the body of water. The Mediterranean is a known habitat of great whites, but sightings are extremely rare and usually happen near the surface.
Derk Remmers, a volunteer diver for the Ghost Diving organization, filmed the animal during a dive off the Strait of Sicily. He told CBS News’ partner network BBC that “the shark was pretty close to us … and in fact my fingers were trembling when I was trying to get the camera operating.”
In a separate statement he called spotting the shark offshore in the Mediterranean “insane.”
Remmers was participating in a mission organized by the Healthy Seas foundation to remove abandoned fishing nets and equipment from biodiversity hotspots underwater. The organization says it had documented animals, including sea turtles, trapped in abandoned fishing gear at the site on previous dives.

“Statistically, it is way more likely to win the lotto jackpot than to meet such an iconic animal underwater. You spend decades diving wrecks and removing ghost nets, but nothing prepares you for a moment like this,” Remmers said in a statement.
He said the encounter reminded him of the importance of protecting sea life from threats such as overfishing and abandoned fishing gear.
Since 2016, the International Union for Conservation of Nature has qualified the great white shark as “critically endangered” in the Mediterranean Sea.
