Animals sometimes possess abilities worthy of the best works of science fiction. While it is common knowledge that dogs have an exceptional sense of smell and that cats can see in the dark, it has recently been discovered that sharks are able to find their way using the Earth\u2019s magnetic fields.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A NATURAL GPS THAT SHARKS HAVE IN COMMON WITH CARRIER PIGEONS AND DOLPHINS <\/strong><\/h2>\n

Scientists have long hypothesized that the sharks<\/a> may be able to use the Earth\u2019s magnetic fields to navigate the ocean when traveling very long distances. This theory has been confirmed by scientists at Florida State University, who can now confirm that it is no coincidence that sharks follow a particularly precise and direct path when migrating from one place to another. According to the researchers, the Earth\u2019s magnetic fields thus serve as a natural GPS for these animals.<\/p>\n
