(NewsNation) Sharks in the Bahamas have tested positive for cocaine, caffeine and painkillers, a new study found, showing the impact of marine pollution.
Researchers analyzed blood samples from 85 sharks captured around one of the most remote islands in the Bahamas.
Of those sharks, 28 had drugs of some kind in their system.
The findings show how widespread pollution can spread, even to places seen as pristine, researchers say.
