Underwater World Singapore (UWS) diver Adeline Yeo handling a 50cm baby white tip reef shark in a holding tank at UWS. The shark was discovered by Adeline on the 11th of December while vacuming the Reef Colony Section of the Tunnel. The 9 day-old female shark was named Sharline, a combination of the word shark and name Adeline, the diver who discovered her. Sharline does not mind being handled by Adeline and was unafraid of visitors taking photos of it when it was first discovered. She will be on display at the rocky pool from the 19th to the 31st of December before being brought back to quarantine until she reaches maturity and will then be released in the Reef Colony. -- ST PHOTO: RAJ NADARAJAN

Underwater World Singapore (UWS) is proud to welcome its latest arrival of a baby White Tip Shark.
The shark was discovered when one of their divers, Ms Adeline, was vacuuming the reef tank on Tue, Dec 11, 2012. She was vacuuming the area near to the acrylic and was astonished to see a newborn white-tip, whose length is as long as her arm approximately 50cm.
