Unfortunately, we will never know for sure what happened to Seabatch. I don’t believe in the megalodon theory, as many are now publishing it. “Of course, there may be white sharks larger than the Deep Blue that have not appeared in front of humans. We will try to draw a 3D model of the great Deep Blue shark and see what bite size she could leave on a. “It’s hard to say what size this shark could have been. “I think this shark’s scar is about a year old, and it was the result of a bite from another great white shark.
“Another theory from the comments is killer whale bite mark, but the shape of the orca’s jaws and teeth is different,” Najafov says. Najafov was on DiscoverSharks Maldives whale shark expedition in September, whale shark, photo by Zimy Da Kid Was the Shark Attacked by a Killer Whale? I have seen photos of injured sharks before and after injury from other photographers. “It has long been noted that sharks’ wounds heal remarkably very quickly. “Regarding many comments on social media that they believe this scar could have remained from the shark’s juvenile period, given the speed of wound regeneration in sharks, such a theory is incorrect,” says the shark enthusiast. They often fight for prey, during the mating season, and to protect themselves from larger species. Sharks live in harsh conditions, and therefore the showing of aggression is quite normal for the species. There is evidence that great white sharks assume dominance hierarchies around feeding territories, and the largest sharks usually get the best hunting spots. Sharks frequently change their habitats but are not territorial by nature. It could not have been from getting caught by a boat’s propeller or rocks because of the circular shape. The workup included taking a variety of measurements, and tissue samples such as DNA and stable isotope, before tagging and releasing this beautiful animal, photo of Najafov by shark diver believes it to be a bite mark, as this is a scar on the shark’s underside that shows the circular shape of the jaw. During the trip, the crew, led by caught a nurse shark, and the team, ‘worked up’ the shark. Najafov had the privilege of joining and assisting with one of their research expeditions. Michael Domeier, another friend and Shark Week presenter, who is President/Executive Director of the Marine Conservation Science Institute, also felt it was an attack from another shark.
So, I posted the photo, and it went super-viral…” Tristian Guttridge’s opinion, and his answer was the same as mine. It's thought that she could be more than 50 years old.“Before I posted Seabatch (Survivor) again on my page, I decided to ask my friend, scientist Dr. "I was thinking, 'What in the world is this?' Because it was way bigger than any shark I'd expect," Gray said of the encounter.ĭeep Blue is estimated to measure a staggering 20 feet long and is likely still growing by several millimeters each year. The underwater footage shot by photographer Mark Mohler showed marine biologist Andrew Gray and fellow photographer Kimberly Jeffries swimming just feet from Deep Blue, cameras in hand as they captured rare footage of the creature. Footage from that January encounter is featured in the National Geographic SharkFest special "World's Biggest Great White?" on Sunday, July 21, at 8 p.m. New footage has emerged showing what appears to be Deep Blue, one of the largest great white sharks ever caught on camera, feasting on a whale carcass off the coast of Hawaii earlier this year.Ī group of Hawaii-based scientists and biologists filmed a shark matching Deep Blue's description several miles off the coast of Waikiki.
