A huge female shortfin mako shark, Isurus oxyrinchus, was observed on 28 June 2018 near Cabrera Grande, in the Balearic Islands, Spain. Its total length was carefully estimated at 500 cm based on a comparison with a 520-cm inflatable boat. This specimen is therefore the largest mako known alive and the second largest mako ever recorded worldwide.
