Sharks off the coast of Brazil have tested positive for cocaine, scientists say.

The concentrations were as much as 100 times higher than previously reported for other aquatic creatures. The research, carried out by the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation, is the first to find the presence of cocaine in sharks.
