Marine biologists tested 13 Brazilian sharpnose sharks taken from the shores near Rio de Janeiro and found they tested for high levels of co***ne in their muscles and livers.
Experts believe the co***ne is making its way into the waters via illegal labs where the drug is manufactured or through excrement of drug users.
