China has unveiled a bionic robotic fish that swims and maneuvers like a real one—but with a purpose beyond the ecosystem. Developed by researchers at Wuhan University, this AI-powered marvel is now patrolling the Yangtze River to support environmental monitoring and river conservation.
Equipped with cutting-edge sensors and smart obstacle avoidance, the robotic fish collects real-time data on water quality, pollutant levels, and ecological conditions. Unlike static monitoring stations, this mobile unit explores hard-to-reach areas, adapting its route with machine learning.
The aim? To catch pollution early, support biodiversity, and inform government clean-up policies with actionable data.
It’s not just a tech achievement—it’s a glimpse of how AI and robotics can become allies in fighting environmental degradation.

The largest great white shark ever tagged in the Atlantic Ocean, named Contender, has resurfaced off the North Carolina coast—a popular US beach destination.
Measuring 14 feet long and weighing approximately 1,653 pounds, Contender is a mature male estimated to be 30–32 years old. He was first tagged in January 2025 by marine researchers from OCEARCH near the Florida–Georgia border.
After months of absence from trackers, Contender was recently detected in Pamlico Sound, a coastal inlet area near the Outer Banks. Scientists believe he is likely feeding in the region before migrating northward toward Atlantic Canada.
Marine experts emphasize that such sightings are normal seasonal behavior and not a cause for alarm.
Contender's movement offers valuable data on shark migration, habitat use, and ocean health.
Despite public concern due to his proximity to tourist beaches, the shark remains well offshore and poses no danger to swimmers.
His reappearance helps researchers understand the ecological role of apex predators and reinforces the importance of shark conservation efforts.The largest great white shark ever tagged in the Atlantic Ocean, named Contender, has resurfaced off the North Carolina coast—a popular US beach destination.
