Thank you for having a local/native person as the narrator it makes a huge difference for the pronunciation of Hawaiian words.

I am a long time resident of Maui. I used to kayak solo at Olowalu. What these women do is amazing. I think the sharks come here for the same reason the humpback whales do: to mate. Keeping their species healthy would involve mating outside their normal neighborhood gene pool. The fact they are also at a buffet of whale meat, certainly doesn’t hurt. The whales don’t eat when they are here, since their meal of plankton is scarce in the warm waters. They feast up north.

[@bradlyscotunes9156]

Why?

[@SeniorJohnQPublic]

I would love to find out what is Paige’s PhD dissertation about. I am impressed that more research on sharks is being conducted in Hawaii. The stereotypical image of these ocean predators has advanced/changed considerably since the first Jaws movie was produced in the early 1970’s. I miss living in Hawaii. It is cold here in Colorado……

[@carolannlocks]

Amazing team - goal driven and so prepared and truly know their sharks in and out . Glad they were successful

[@MSPA79]

Outstanding team, wonderful entertainment, thank you.

[@garyurtiaga9426]

There isn’t a mystery why there are more shark attacks in Maui. If you research the time of year when more attacks occur, you’ll find they coincide with the Humpback whale calving season. These sharks have been conditioned to come to the area where the most calves are born and enjoy free, non-combatant food in the form of whale “after birth”, which is highly nutritious and doesn’t fight back. There are also a large number of still born calves which also provide massive calories from November through April each year for hundreds and hundreds of years, possibly thousands of years. Another reason there are more attacks is that there are more tourist in the waters every year in Maui and they are not educated as to the dangers. Mating is a secondary causation of attacks. It’s about the free food. PS-The Tigers then move to the Northern atolls after whale season is over to eat the large supply of sea birds that hatch during the summer months. The cycle repeats every year. Simple logic.

[@mysterioanonymous3206]

Makes perfect sense

[@albertoe.martinez7763]

@@janstan8407It is National Geographic about women and sharks

[@mijuajua4820]

Wow….interesting! Thank you for that information 😊

[@kaleipulamainawai]

Likely all true. Scientists still want to gather observable data if they can and if the sharks are breeding there while feeding it would be an interesting discovery. Even just the testing of a new and less invasive way to tag and track and gather behavioural information is neat.

[@jordanw1649]

What percentage of the attacks happen to swimmers near shore, vs surfers, vs scuba divers far out?

This is an absolutely captivating subject. I hope it continues.

Olowalu has always been a place where there were a alot of sharks. Locals know this. A woman was swimming with friends out there and she was killed, not sure if her body was found. Imagine how scary for her friends. That was 20 years ago. Every time I’d drive to Lahaina I’d remember.

[@taylorpresley4604]

No, they never found her body.

@@federalreservebrown2507 Wow..unbelievable….Tiger Sharks 🦈 are evil in my opinion…they know exactly what they’re doing when preying on humans…they actually enjoy the taste of human flesh…

[@garyurtiaga9426]

@@tomboland64 I remember it well. Apparently, a group of Tiger’s were feeding on a dead baby Humpback Whale and this lady, who swam this area everyday in the morning, by herself, saw the commotion, swam over to check it out, and was brutally attacked and consumed. There are several very important lessons from this avoidable incident to be learned. First, never swim alone, especially in the early morning or sunset, early evening. Second, I personally never snorkel or swim unless I have at least 30-40 foot of visibility. Third, If you encounter a shark, any size any kind, keep your eyes on the shark while “slowly” swimming away, preferably on your back while never losing sight of the shark. DO NOT THRASH, PANIC or start YELLING. That’s like a dinner bell. Fourth, Stay calm, cool and collected but get away asap. Enjoy the ocean but remember, you are a visitor and you’re not in charge. Aloha!

Instead of seeing a mystery in the sharks, the real mystery is why it is so interesting to see 45 min. of the scientists trying so hard, being so brave, telling their stories, being so important... But not the sharks?

[@fettmaneiii4439]

its because its about an expression of ego, not scientific research. Same as the bear whisperer guy who got killed. Its brain rot.

[@FeatherstoneApothecary]

why shouldn't we recognize them? they're young, bright, girls who did something most people wouldn't attempt. the hardest part is the tagging. the rest is simply analyzing the data which is behind a desk.

A NEW fun shark fact ... when in mating season on Maui ... they only want the very best, most pricey ... Ahi please ... but never seared! 😂

[@eringemini7091]

Maui has the highest number of Shark attacks on Humans ( of all the Hawaiian Islands). According to the Maui Department of Land & Natural Resources ( DLNR), in the last 30 years, there have been 59 Shark Attacks on Maui. This could correlate with the research in this video, or it could be other reasons like high numbers of visitors to Maui who also partake in Ocean- related activities?🤔

exactly and, 59 in 30 ... are you kidding, there are billions of ppl roaming every inch of the earth and sharks get slaughtered by the millions, so i prefer a shark any time

[@asrotties]

Ocean Ramsey works on getting hooks out of Tiger Sharks mouths. I think that one was Queen Nikki and she had a video of her attempts. There was one, I think Rosey that had a very badly damaged jaw. I THINK this was the same one in this video but the jaw is healing, that she attempted and failed on. I love that there are attempts to study without harming the sharks. The more we know, the safer we can keep them and humans in the water.
