I was just reading one of the threads discussing the recurrent theme of our co-inhabitants of the sea, ie- the Great Whites, when something occurred to me.
There is a theory amongst some that there is a rogue shark responsible for the recent multiple attacks.
If this theory is true, then we could extrapolate from that, the same shark could probably be attributed to the many non attack encounters recently.
So, there have been many encounters captured on film recently, vids and photos, so I would suggest we use the power of numbers here to post up images from all of these recorded encounters, and use them to try and identify any common marks/identifying features on the shark/s in question.
Perhaps we can identify if it really is the same shark, or couple of sharks.
What do you say?
I figured it'd be worth a go.
If you reckon it's worth a try, post the line up pics guys...
Fair go fellas, I was hoping this thread might be able to be given a decent chance before it descended into the usual ass-hattery.
I cant see any reason to hunt down that particular shark..It is only doing what it is made to do ( kill anything that it wants too )
Its like identifying a croc that attacked someone or a snake for that matter.
They don't hunt us down its just what they do.
I say shark fin soup for all...( only the man eaters )
OK,
based on the pics posted so far, I think you might be on to something.
Look at the distintive mark on the right side of the face, about halfway between the eye and the nose (the dark mark in the white area of the face)
Well I have to say I'm surprised.
I thought this thread would have generated a lot more serious interest than it has, especially due to the numbers of passionate armchair experts who post in the threads complaining about the 'shark problem'.
Seems no one is actually interested in doing something practical in any small way, that may help our understanding of the situation?
Easier to take the piss.
Anyway, going by the small sample of real shark pics posted, looking at the pattern of the line dividing the grey and white colouring on the sharks faces, I'd say it looks like all of these sharks are individuals, which could dispel the theory of a single rogue shark.
It is however a limited evaluation as we don't have pics of both sides of each of these sharks.
Of course more pics (real) would go a long way towards determining the answer.
Dude, didn't you get the message loud and clear?
No one gives a ****.
They all wanna be armchair heroes and think that they are the funniest and greatest trolls on the net.
Tbh, I never thought it was one or two rouge sharks. Imo its lots of sharks. They havnt benn hunted/fished for over ten years so their numbers must be up, this combined with whale migration means we are getting more close in to the coast.
And, arnt all sharks rouge sharks?
LOL, and red-thumb cowboys, who don't have the mental capacity to actually make a sensible statement, I don't blame them though, it must take a long time to type with two fingers.
Click on the red thumbs, much easier.
