Excerpt from All About Sharks: A Complete Guide to the World’s Most Misunderstood Predator (Nov. 2017):
The record amount of time a shark has survived in captivity belonged to Bertha, a 43-year-old sand tiger shark who lived at the New York Aquarium until her death in 2008.
The female lived in a 90,000 habitat with eight other sharks, but was known for her non-confrontational attitude and behavior.
