This is why I love your channel. It reminds me of why I used to be glued to the TV for shark week 20 or more years ago. I love to learn new things, instead of the same boring lists of "unusual" shark facts in every show, or the sensational accounts and dramatizations of attacks. I would absolutely love more videos about little known shark behaviors, or more about the species that don't get as much attention on tv

@nohbdyz3 Год назад

Holy smokes, I came to the comments section to make a similar comment! I remember a few years ago when Shark Week showed research where they figured out that White Sharks slept by aiming towards the depths and just going down while in a sleep like state. I was so happy to just see some friggin science! I don't know if it was even accurate though given Discovery's reputation 😞

I've noticed the fin depression in videos in the past and always found myself telling the diver, "Dude, you better back off." Especially when it comes with that hunched back. It always struck me as as blatantly aggressive/warning. Cool to see papers coming out confirming that impression. The more we truly understand animal behavior, the safer both they AND humans can be.

@maxlutz3674 Год назад

Humans also need to act accordingly. Unfortunately many don´t. Often the animal has to pay.

Would love to see more shark behavioural videos! Am a diver but my area don't have much sharks, so when I do see one it's a real treat, and would love to know more about what to look out for. I saw a whitetip reef shark once, and it didn't quite do a head shake, but it tilted sideways for a split second but otherwise continued on it's way. I just started following when that happened, and left it on its own after that.

As someone who for the majority of their life had been terrified of sharks do to having been exposed to Deep Blue Sea as my first instance of them, not knowing of their existence back then and not being told they aren't actually like that, It was hard for me to truly learn as much from them as others could. I watched dozens of documentaries but seeing a shark go towards the screen/camera always triggered my fear and I had to turn away or change the channel. Over time I would eventually just avoid the scene but keep watching to continue to learn, as animal documentaries are some of my favorite shows. Despite one day waking up no longer fearing sharks the same way, no other resource has been as crystal clear and enjoyable as this channel, and for the past week or so has been a binge for me whilst working on projects. Bottom line as I'm sure others watching will agree, we'd love to have a more in depth video on agonistic displays and maybe overall shark behavior in detail as it's been fascinating to learn about this. Thanks for bringing us absolutely incredibly informative content Kris

@chrisblinman9150 Год назад

Please do some more of these threat displays, I thought I knew a lot of them, definitely fin depression, yawing and hunching. But I was unaware of the head shake one. I once followed a wobbegong and it bit my finger. I know it was totally my fault, I was in his/her personal space and I was probably pretty threatening. However he/she performed a head shake before the bite and I didn't recognise it until today. So thank you for that insight and I'd definitely like to know more.

@SHARKBYTES Год назад

You should absolutely do more behavioral videos. The Discovery Channel had some video of a white shark doing the head shake too. I think the scientists had the same conclusion as you.

@BrySkye Год назад

Probably some of the best video documentation of the threat displays is the work Mike deGruy (RIP) did with Grey Reef Sharks in 1990, in part as the result of an earlier bite incident he had. It was part of a BBC documentary, Sharks on their Best Behaviour, that was broadcast and released on VHS around 1992. You can find a minute long clip from the documentary on RU-vid as "Posturing Grey Reef" (possibly uploaded by his widow), where he provoked a display and attack whilst wearing a chainmail suit and a plexiglass shield, the scenario allowing for some very clear footage, by the standards of the time.

Great video Kris.

@jhonnycaicedo5647 Год назад

remember this are wild animals and also they are predators while some instances of shark attacks may be due to what you're thinking, some are due to them being a predator for no other reason than to eat, or because they are big and powerful and they can. they can be a myriad of reason to shark attacks however out of all those reason you can never discount they are a predatory species and kill living being for sustenance, power and dominance, and sometimes because they can

@kevinthielmann9408 Год назад

@@jhonnycaicedo5647also sometimes they bite out of curiosity. But I disagree that sharks do it, “because they can” They might be big and powerful, but they don’t like to risk getting attacked in return. They have very sensitive noses, so they prefer to keep those sensitive sensory organs out of harm’s way if possible

@jhonnycaicedo5647 Год назад

@@kevinthielmann9408 before I reply to your comment I will say that I’m not a shark hater, I found them to be beautiful but scary creatures that can end your life with a bite. It hurts my heart to see the practice of killing hundreds or thousands of sharks just to get their fins to make soup for insensitive people without control I believe that is cruel and should be regulated. With that said the mere fact that you said that sharks sometimes bite out of curiosity validates my point, because if they feel secure enough to simply approach you and give you a curiosity bite it is because they are confident in the power and size to not find you as a threat, which mean they sometimes attack simply because they can. I do not believe any shark even the biggest female white shark will try a curiosity bite against a full grown male orca, if for some reason that shark will attack that Orca will never be out of curiosity. The risk is not worth it, so attacking you out of curiosity simply means they sometimes attack because they can, simply that. I don’t believe sharks are just mindless killing machines but they are wild and a costumed to take life to feed and most of the pray they take are low risk to them. So you can disagree all you like but I maintained my point this beautiful creatures are to be admired but respected because they, they are wild, and they are powerful I don’t think we should destroy them but care for them but cautiously as for a coward like me I like to admire them in the safety of my living room, yeah.

@YouTube_user3333 Год назад

Always treat them with respect. Give them space. Always keep an eye on them. Watch for signs. If you don’t understand what aggressive behaviour looks like, be safe and give them even more space. Sometimes you can be unlucky and not even see them approaching.

@bari2883 Год назад

Think about it from a sharks perspective with the gws and the cage diver. If your home alone in bed and you here a noise, like someone is inside your home, your going to investigate on alert, not happily strolling down the hallway towards the noise. I believe this is why the shark is approaching this way as it’s not sure what the cage and diver are at that point . So it’s on guard so to speak. Also I think it’s wonderful how we’ve come along way in recognising shark behaviours and giving them the respect they have every right to. It takes years of observation to understand species of any kind and I’m in awe at people who study apex predators, especially aquatic studies.

Its pure simple evolution and natural selection. A predator that sucks at hiding is going to go hungry while a prey that doesn’t know how to hide isn’t going to have a long life. Now in the case of humans even though we still live in this real world of ours called the wild and it still very much applies to us. The fact we live in a separate fictional reality we made up but all agree on had the affect of causing most of us idiots to lose those skills due to being sheltered from certain dangers and constraints at the cost of other things. This is why when we get air dropped in the wild unprepared a lot of people lack self preservation. For example, see a shark in threat posture and ignore all signs thats something other organisms have learned to recognise while in our case natural selection says you going to either learn or die.

I work in dog training and behaviour (and have done for almost 20 years,) and the thing I've spent the most time doing over those last 20 years has been acting as an interpreter between dogs and people and helping them to understand each other and because of that I've spent the last few years filming dog body language and behaviour (and now have the challenge of editing hundreds of video clips!) for a course to help people understand their dogs (and therefore ultimately help more dogs.) I found this Shark Bytes video especially interesting because sharks can't move / don't have a lot of the body parts many land-based animals have to communicate - ears, forehead muscles, subtle mouth or eye movements etc., and other things like mouth and tail they're already using for other things (like swimming / breathing etc.) The more I learn about one species the more I want to learn (isn't that the great thing about working with animals - there's always more to learn?) and the more I know I don't know about other animal species (for example sharks.)

This is the first time I’ve ever heard of Agonistic threat display behavior in sharks with their fins being used to identify between their docile and aggressive behavior. Very cool video!

@blazewinters2593 2 месяца назад

I look forward to seeing another video discussing their behaviors

Im an aspiring Shark conservationist and your videos are super useful for me to understand a baseline of information before I hopefully go out into the field so thank you so much 😊 Ive just finished my degree in Ocean Science and Marine Conservation and am looking at doing some volunteering out in Mexico to get my foot in the door for Shark conservation so these videos are all perfect, keep up the good work! 😊

Fascinating, this was a great educational video!

Great reaction image at 3:25. This is exactly the vein of shark science that I hope to study in the future.

That's what we were always taught to look out for on dives, along with any sudden jerky movements by sharks. I saw a number of different shark species over the course of my diving days, no GWs but tigers, bulls, OWTs, even a mako once. The only one that got antsy on me was a blacktip reef shark (normally very benign) that I was probably following a bit too closely. Calmly backing off while keeping eyes on the shark worked on that occasion.

@SHARKBYTES Год назад

Its weird, those blacktip reefs can get proper flustered around people occasionally, and you're right they generally are pretty chilled!

@factchecker472 Год назад

@@SHARKBYTES Exactly, I've dived and snorkelled with them without any problems plenty of times.

@edfederoff2679 Год назад

I have an engineering/physiological theory for the dropped pectoral fin display. Dropping those fins gives the shark greater lateral stability and control - aim - if you will, to steer it directly to it's target when it's tail sweep thrusts it forward.

I got some video on a dive a while back with a few Sandbar Sharks and one of them was agitated, a few other divers were spearfishing. After giving me a good bump it swam away giving that body shake. On a happier encounter we have been seeing Whale Sharks where I live ( Florida panhandle ) and I got to dive with one for the first time. Magical experience.

@JohnWilliams-hw9yn Год назад

A great video, but we are getting homework now?! I’m off to dive into those old Shark Bytes to look for those depressed pectoral fins.

@sarahmoore6183 Год назад

Definitely interested in seeing more about documented shark behaviors and what we think they indicate.

@avigobindlall7342 7 месяцев назад

Would really appreciate a video of all of these aggressive behaviours; will help with kayak and spearfishing 🇿🇦

glad you did this video. just saw a video on youtube of some social media jerk, showing a video of a tiger shark lunging at him, and all i could say from the video is that shark was really upset by all the humans crowding it. there were people all around it, and way too close, and you could tell the shark got really upset about it as it bent its pectoral fins down and lunged for the social media jerk right in front of it. the dude was able to knock it away with his hand, but i remember being annoyed at the video because those people clearly antagonised the shark into that.

@SHARKBYTES Год назад

Got a link to the video for me?

@arizona_anime_fan Год назад

@@SHARKBYTES it was one of those dumb youtube shorts. i'll see if i can track it down... i saw it a few weeks ago. might be hard to find in my history. it had some sort of assinine title like "what to do when a shark attacks you" or "the cameraman never dies" it was a pure cancer video, but i remember clearly how close those people were crowding it, and how the shark just wanted to gtfo of there

@Alberad08 Год назад

Thank you for sharing! BTW I remember this from J. Cousteau's shark book, written more than half a century ago. There he describes it in detail, accompanied by drawings.

@SiaD777 Год назад

Love this video, knew about this already but these were some great examples - thank you. Btw have you ever reacted to Mermaid Kayleigh? She does similar to Ocean Ramsey but seems more respectful of the sharks, but would love to know your thoughts.

@jenchandler4807 Год назад

Yes more please! I would love a video showing great whites hovering and taking things in

@2Askew84 Год назад

Put the pectoral fins down and the hunch in the back it’s definitely a threat posture, but it could also help to propel the shark through the water faster, giving it more speed in power
