You know, if this adaptive behavior is confirmed with more studies, it would be cool to see you do an additional study on whether nurse sharks already bear this behavior via instinct or if they learn it by observing older, more experienced nurse sharks.

@SHARKBYTES Год назад

Would be an awesome thing to look into, we did see a few juvenile individuals doing it, so I wonder if it’s innate!

Congratulations Kristian and to your co-authors on the publication of your paper. That was a fascinating insight into nurse shark behaviour, and the video was a great break down so that ordinary punters can understand it. I learnt so much about nurse shark behaviour and their biology. Their pectoral fins are incredible!

@jb8331 Год назад

Congrats on the paper! Do you happen to know how strong the currents were in the areas where the BRUVs were deployed? Curious if they were also using their pectoral fins to brace and anchor themselves to the seafloor as a way to remain stationary in the water column as they fed.

@SHARKBYTES Год назад

Great question JB, we didn’t have a way to measure current on the BRUVs but could occasionally see direction based on floating vegetation. Like you say, station holding has been seen in a few shark species, so it would be interesting to explore this a bit more

@lizlilliman3644 Год назад

This is really interesting. I presume that shark behaviour is different in public aquariums as they are fed by hand or target more. I do wonder if captive nurse sharks are "lazier" then wild nurse sharks. I know at the deep , tilly used to always be in the same area everytime. Unfortunately they lost tilly not long after they introduced Timothy, he stays in a different spot (he is in the shark tunnel cave). They did find that tilly had eggs when they found her, unfortunately she died over night. (She was my daughters favourite).

@SHARKBYTES Год назад

I’d imagine they may be a little lazier, although aquariums can definite provide some insight into behaviour for sure!

I had a strange encounter with a very large nurse shark on Cat Island. Bahamas. I was snorkeling in 10 - 15 ft and a nurse shark surprised me swimming up from behind and bumping me in the chest and continuing past me. It was 6ft+. I have never seen such a large nurse shark before. It later returned and bumped me again. We were staying on the beach where this occurred and snorkeled many times in this same area.Always mid day. It behaved in what I considered an aggressive manner if encountered. I never approached and always gave it its space. It seemed to have a thing for me. It never bothered my husband. This occurred in Shanna's Cove. Funny you mention Cat Island in another video.

I've seen bottom-feeding catfish (plecos) using their fins to position themselves like this when they're feeding if they can't sit flat to rasp on their food. I have a 40 cm / 1 kg pleco as a pet right now and he does all sorts of shenanigans to eat his dinner or slurp on his bits of driftwood (xylivores gonna xylivore)... so this feeding behaviour from the nurse sharks looked totally familiar. Just like my boy Edgar when I give him some courgette.

@chemistrykrang8065 Месяц назад

Including feeding upside down like a right goofball.

@michelleross9782 Год назад

Congrats Christian!!! Could you all test whether the nurse sharks would come to the area for the bait cans if you have bait in it for say a week & then you leave the bait out 1 or 2 days to then go back to having bait? If it worked you could see the same behavior that's not being artificially triggered and possibly some other behaviors never seen. I just wouldn't recommend being in the water with them when they realize there's no food in the canisters.

@SHARKBYTES Год назад

It’s an interesting idea Michelle, although I suppose on the day where there was no bait, what would the nurse shark be feeding on to perform the behaviours?

@isray89 Год назад

10:20 - No clue what their home ranges look like, but that seems like a potential use for something like AirTags or Tiles. Get a bunch of old phones in waterproof containers w/ batteries/solar panels, set them up in a 3D grid, and use a ROV or similar to tag each shark. I wanted to try this with bushbabies, but the species I was working on are too small for even airtags. Sharks are a bit bigger than 200g though!

@MrMalvolio29 2 месяца назад

Kristan, the nurse sharks’ seemingly “walking” on their pectoral fins to better position themselves with respect to the bait can reminds me a bit of the behaviour of *another* (albeit considerably smaller) bottom-dwelling Orectolobiforme shark: the less than 1 meter long “epaulette shark.” During low tides, epaulette sharks can use their pectoral fins to “locomote” over the tops of reefs or from one tidal pool to another to escape hypoxia (oxygen-depleted tidal pools) and to find food (small bony fish/crustaceans. I probably should have waited until the END of your video to post this, as your paper indubitably discerns this similarity between these two Orectolobiforme species and answers my questions, but the video of the nurse sharks you showed got me excited, and i simply HAD to type. Question 1: do you think this similarity between nurse sharks and epaulette sharks could indicate that Orectolobiforme sharks could have been one of the first fish species to begin the long evolutionary march from being sea-dwelling creatures to being exclusively terrestrial animals? And, Question#2: do you think this behaviour is more of a purely adventitious anomaly among nurse sharks, and not nearly as “common” as the epaulette shark’s little “strolls” from tidal pool to tidal pool, or might *both* sharks represent a modern vestige of those long, loooooooooong lost fossils of the very earliest stages of Life’s beginning to take the long walk to living entirely on land?

@epkesel Год назад

Might I suggest trying setting crab traps disguised in corals, set with a tied crustation of some kind, and see if nurse sharks are still performing the same movements? Could also set up "puzzles" similar to what they do with dogs or cats (obviously more simplified and designed for underwater settings) in a research lab. This minimizes impact and influence from other marine animals Overall, congrats on this achievement and well done Also right before watching this I came across a RU-vid short by The Sun about a shark encounter with a kayaker. How do I send it to you?

@suzannebraden9671 Год назад

@thefolder3086 Год назад

Idk if I’m too late but I think I do have some further hypothesis Is it possible that the sharks are trying to experiment where they could suck the food out of the bruv? They would be more familiar with more complex prey like crustaceans who might have some weaker spots than others or some fish with defensive spines that they might have to find a way to get around so they evolve to try foraging from different angles not just bc of the rock shape which isn’t present in the bruv case but also the preys anatomy. It might also be a more intelligent form of trial and error as well with them trying to see which area of the bruv have holes they can suck the food out of
