Off South Africa’s coast, Dr. Emily Carter and her team raced to rescue a great white shark trapped in fishing nets. When they found it, the shark was barely moving, badly tangled and injured.
From a small dinghy, they carefully cut the nets. The shark stayed still, as if it understood. Just as they freed it, it thrashed violently—then calmed, circled the boat, and swam away.
The team watched in awe. For Dr. Carter, it was a powerful moment—a reminder that even the wildest creatures can sense when we choose compassion.
