Photo taken today along Gulf Coast of Florida.

Why is it that men get attached by sharks in much higher percentages than women? Right here. Because when there is a beach full of people and a shark is spotted in water, look who goes in to "investigate" further. Guy on the far right is at least packing 12oz of courage.

They probably all have been downin' some. The dude on the right still has the evidence in his hand;)

BTW, if you're the shark, the last two dudes from left to right would be the ones to go for.

Yeah, at least one behavioral scientist said pissing in the water is an attractor for sharks.
IDK do beer consuming men do that? ;)
Note to self ....no longer a smart or pan-species stealthy idea.

Sharks don't eat whales so green and maroon are fine.

Im not so sure it is a shark - it truly maybe a dolphin - seriously. We see them all the time on the other side. They cruise the shallows looking for bait fish. If it is a bull - then they are just stupid - they can get to almost 8 feet and 400 lbs - with a shi**y attitude.
IMO, I still think it looks like a dolphin.

This surfer was attacked earlier today:


That is definitely a great hammer 10-14 ft' they are a big time warm water shark (gulf side... pretty blue) The dorsal and head on this one makes it go at least 10...probably 12-14. The great hammers have very pronounced and sturdy/tall dorsal fins like this guy.

It was definitely a shark. We get all combinations of them around. Within about a mile of this sighting there have been videos of an mako shark that was about 8 feet long and a few hammerheads around 7-9 feet long. Both were cruising along the sand bars around 150' from the shore line.

We see dolphins all the time and we'll see porpoises in the inland bays as well.

Within the link I sent there's a video that gives a much better look. That was a substantive predator.

After looking at the other video - I would agree that it definitely a shark. That is not the dorsal of a dolphin or porpoise.

The Mick Fanning attack(s) they concluded was from two different Great Whites at the same time. Crazy.
