Fewer seen around Island's coast in recent years
Fewer basking sharks being spotted in Manx waters could be down to how difficult it is to track the species.
That's from Dr Lara Howe at the Manx Wildlife Trust.
The sharks are typically seen around the Island during the summer months - you can track their activity by clicking here.
Dr Howe says some can go a full year without being spotted:
Environmental surveys scheduled for proposed wind farm in south of Island
Ecologists to assess environmental consequences of proposed development
RNLI launched 40 times in 2024, saving four lives
Annual rescue figures published for Isle of Man crews
Mountain Road: Pre-TT maintenance works postponed
Issue with asphalt plant sees resurfacing works pushed back
Fault that prevented planning documents being viewed now fixed
Work to ensure affected applications meet 21-day publicity requirements ongoing
