That sure is a lot of effort for a tiny canister of Sardines!

Bird-eating GTs - Video!
Source.
This is beyond awesome.
Latest since that paper, I knew that those GTs are totally badass - but seeing this, along with the unbelievably spectacular footage and the awesome editing simply leaves me in total awe!
And yes this would obviously be the BBC - who else!
H/T Serena - enjoy!
Shark Dive Videos!
The only acceptable Shark soup indeed!
Stunning - and captured whilst following our normal procedures!
Enjoy!
PS: And by the way.
Turns out that that small male (!) Maskray at 6:37ff in the first video may well be a species of interest!
I've now spent the better part of the day conversing with prominent Elasmo taxonomists - and the consensus is that this may be something akin to, but
The Bulls of Beqa!
Thank you so much Melinda!
This is really, really nice.
Melinda is a repeat visitor - and it really shows as she understands, and has pretty much nailed what we do, and why.
Much appreciated, really!
Enjoy!

So here is Johann's post.
Like I said, totally, utterly and ridiculously amazing!
And Yannis most certainly agrees.

Sixgill Stingray - Video!
Way cool!
I didn't even know they existed = it just goes to show that one learns something new every day!

Bull Shark Selfie!
Behold!
The question being, is this legit?
Christian is an accomplished video and photo pro who can modify an image in any way he pleases - but having witnessed this specific dive and his photo rig, my vote goes for this being the real thing!
Anyway, very nice!
And the mentioned research?
It's got to do with this, and with how those findings relate to our own activities at Shark
Mrs. Jaws - New Article!
Great pic by Ozzie Sam - click for detail!
Check this out!
I must really say that I find this an excellent idea!
To wit, Juerg and Charlie's latest little publication about our serial observations of Mrs. Jaws: maybe a bit lean for a conventional scientific publication but certainly interesting - or not?
And there are also videos!
Methinks this one where she was swimming around
Und schon wieder was auf Deutsch!
Sehr nett!
Alles in allem prima recherchiert, bravo.
Aber Katja ist weder Taucherin noch Biologin, und da haben sich halt doch ein paar Fehler eingeschlichen. Das beschriebene Angriffsverhalten, die Angriffs-Statistiken und Jaws beziehen sich auf Weisse Haie und nicht Bullenhaie; die Europäische Flotte im Südpazifik ist winzig = so um die 5 Boote, die stark reguliert und sicherlich
Gaping Tiger Shark - Awesome!
How cool is this!
Tim is absolutely correct.
He is disturbing a predation event, and this is agonistic behavior = the Tiger is likely seeing him as a potential competitor and clearly telling him to piss off.
Amazing defensive behavior by the Turtle, too! :)

Poaching in the Galapagos Islands!
Amazing.
Story here and here, brilliant article about a brilliant investigation by Global Fishing Watch here!
Sharks vs Humpback Whale!
Wow.
Remember this paper about Bulls killing a Whale?
Now, some Bull Sharks (and possibly Tigers and OWTs?) appear to have attacked and killed a Humpback calf in Haapai, Tonga. Very interesting - and big kudos to the good folks at Whale Discoveries for their impassioned and respectful report.
