For a species exceeding five meters in length, the global scientific sample size remains astonishingly small. Entire research programs depend on fewer physical examples than many common fish species provide in a single season.
This scarcity magnifies the scientific value of every documented individual, turning each accidental capture into a rare window into an otherwise hidden lineage.
