The theory, which other media outlets are running with as if it were scientifically proven, seems entirely based on [...]

Cape Cod Greate White Sharks “hugged” coast on their way to Florida

According to The Boston Globe, data from a third great white shark tagged last September in Massachusetts waters is now being transmitted. Data from two other great white sharks tagged in the same area revealed that the sharks traveled 1,000 miles south over a two-month span and are currently in Florida waters.

Diver lends helping hand to nurse shark

YouTube user Ptsearch recently added the video below featuring a diver removing what appears to be an Aerobie flying ring from a nurse shark. While nurse shark’s are bottom-feeders and are generally harmless toward humans, I still feel the need to give a “Kids, don’t try this at home,” warning, as the species has been [...]

ABC report on shark attacks…Oh, and it’s currently 2010.

I think we were at about 90-100 ft. This was at Alcyone at Cocos Island, so I'm sure it was pretty deep.

If you look closely you'll see the shark is wounded on the snout. i think he has lorenzini ampolas exposed, that could have increased his sensibility to the elecrtomagnetic field emitted by the running cameras. That's my explanation. Anyway, congrat…
