There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

In fact just a few days ago there was this scandal with a local travel agency that commited fraud for about half a million dollars selling fake trips and promotions... If I had the opportunity I would go to Australia simply because it is a first world country, it should have better options and more qualified people for that. I'd love to get into those cages to see great whites up close, but dreaming of it is my only chance for the foreseeable future.

3 friends of mine just did Great White Shark diving in Port Lincoln, Australia. They used Calypso Charters, unfortunately they had no luck, in fact there hasn't been a GWS sighting there since July 9th, it's actually very hard to sight GWS and they usually do 2 year cycles so they aren't even in the same location at the same time every year so it seems that luck has as much to do with GWS sightings as it does with big cats.

Looks familiar, maybe those 7 inches Meg teeth in the slant height?

One more of the massive Deep Blue, this is the best one to give you an idea of how large it actually is


DEEP BLUE, THE MASSIVE, 20FT-LONG GREAT WHITE SHARK THOUGHT TO BE BIGGEST ON RECORD, SPOTTED OFF HAWAII COAST
_
'Deep Blue' was last spotted two decades ago in Mexico and is reportedly the largest great white in existence 
_
It weighs an enormous 2.5 tons, measures around 20 feet long and is 50 years old according to scientists
_
Divers Mark Mohler and Kimberly Jeffries first spotted her Sunday and jumped in the water to take pictures 

The link incase the post isn't showing up

That posting #73 from @epaiva . It just is amazing, I mean astonishing. Not because of size of that shark, but because they weighed it but didn´t measure length. I mean is it so, that they couldn´t find any measuring tape from whole Japan?  I have seen several articles about this shark, but no information, that how long it was... and getting opportunity to measure this long shark easily doesn´t happen too often after all. They could have used a rope and make markings to get measurement later if really no measurement tape available, but no. 

Or has someone seen length of this shark somewhere maybe?
