Resilience in the Depths: First Example of Fin Regeneration in a Silky Shark (Carcharhinus falciformis) following Traumatic Injury

Figure 5

Temporal evolution (days since initial wound sighting) of wound healing showing total surface area (mm). Best fit exponential model (blue line) where intercept equals 42 days when 90% healing is reached (dotted red line). Wound closure rate for whale sharks [6] is compared in yellow.
