12-foot-long tiger shark in Honolulu Harbor

A 12-foot-long tiger shark spotted in Honolulu Harbor. A marine biologist said it's not uncommon.

[@808G8GT]

Well jeez....since all the fishing boats that dock there, dump all their fish scraps overboard in the harbor, i wonder why sharks are around. Genius!!

[@outbackeddie]

It's important to swim with a buddy because it lowers your chance of being dinner by 50%.

[@martinortega793]

😂😂😂😂

[@xm47ecr36]

Make sure buddy is much slower swimmer lol

[@dianevcic6210]

[@citydemo5701]

I can't believe sharks are swimming in the ocean. truly unbelievable

[@user-mc3if9xs7w]

my guy... what

[@user-mc3if9xs7w]

that’s like saying I can’t believe humans are walking on land. Truly incredible

[@brdon2099]

Aytherx sarcasm my dude. It’s sarcasm

[@stylin60es]

They live in the ocean.

[@edwardwood6127]

Unbelievable! Next they will show us bears in the woods :p

[@Artari]

It's their domain, it's not rare...I used to see a lot on the Windward side in Kaneohe Bay on Oahu.

[@RyanNelson0402]

In K-bay the tigers cruise in to eat the baby hammerheads each year.

[@bigbooty01nascar]

It's really no surprise at all. Most fish and hungry predators come close to the bank and enter the shallows to hunt for food. We would assume they're more active like this in the shallows at night but even in broad daylight anything is possible. This is why if you're swimming in these waters whether it's a Harbor, beach etc you gotta be alert at all times.

Another moment ruined by someone filming in portrait mode.

[@michaelm2502]

We have a bigger one than that in Honokohau harbor on Big Island. She’s about 15ft.

[@CerebralEnema]

Where is this? I want to go down and watch.

[@arnoldstollar5375]

Those are near the Aloha tower docks.Sewage from docked ships attracted them.

[@peterganse]

My dad used to sail his little boat in Kaneohe bay and would see hammerheads and tigers all the time. This was the 60s. But they’re definitely in the ocean lol that’s their home.

[@theomniscientogoftheintern8889]

At first glance I thought his name was Ray Eh U Bala.

[@FuzzyWuzzy75]

And if you are going to swim with a "buddy" make sure that it is a "buddy" that you can out swim and always try to keep that buddy in between you and the shark.

[@TomRivieremusic]

Quit feeding it.

[@sean8081a]

There should be a website with live data tracking the tagged sharks. I'd check it before going surfing lol.

[@ld9721]

There are apps like "shark tracker" or "sharktivity"

[@xm47ecr36]

Just tie a christmas ham to your board and they will attack that first giving you time to escape 😅🤣

[@Truminashadepressure]

Some hard-line journalism here. So glad to know there’s sharks in the water!

[@xm47ecr36]

Lol

[@ep2223]

Like one stray dog, you feed um he going come back.

[@kkaebsongyehet4982]

The lady: "why would a shark go to harbour?" Me : *wHaTt!?* The lady: "To eat of course" Me : Glad u know it ...

[@davidkearnes9623]

Common species and that looked like maybe an 8 footer.

[@danielyoung3083]

[@percival23]

Wow, that's amazing. Tiger & Bull sharks have only been doing this for 3 Million years.

[@Cozyboyz2]

If you live in hawaii on any island and snorkel or surf, you have most likely seen these animals 🤘🏽

Ka’ahupahau guardian of man.

[@oliverveale7053]

[@kevinrutkowski3034]

The sharks dont give a shit if you think "Rare" they are close to shore...infact the first 50 yards off of shore is where the largest overall sum (30%) off "attacks" happen

[@ericool007]

Wow Tiger Sharks always have been in Hawaii, I must be so ignant

[@RickGrimes007]

Sharks live there they REMEMBER where food is..fishing boats earth quake alot right now..

[@jimmyaz101]

Wait a minute, there are sharks in the ocean? How does this happen?

[@soidog659]

The locals are feeding them.

[@jamesgibson3242]

What is so surprising? It's part of the ocean.

[@betofernandez5524]

That's not a 12feet long shark. Looks like a non full grown animal indeed. Maybe 6 feet long. Not much more.

[@BPS10-Ga]

Thats Sand Island Park, good fishing spot.

[@Cola64]

Cruise Ships back in the day would anchor off Kona and dump their garbage off the lower deck and some nice size tigers would always show up they finally stopped it after a snorkeler went missing in Keauhou bay ..all they ever found was one of his flippers..🦈
