If you stay in hotel is it possible to rent a boat for such a purpose? I don't have the faintest idea. I haven't been on vacation since I was a kid and people interested in wildlife is rarer than pink elephants. But this country is a corrupt shithole crowded with incompetent people and criminals, so I wouldn't count on it. 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.

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.(08-13-2018, 09:45 AM)Wolverine Wrote: @Shir Babr do you have an idea - for tourists visiting beach resorts of Mexican California (Baja California) is there opportunity to make some kind of Big White shark "safari"?

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 https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsvo1rjlB-SE...RzkN_UJg0/  *This image is copyright of its original author  *This image is copyright of its original author  *This image is copyright of its original author  *This image is copyright of its original author
Acrobatic great white shark ! Its head is at a right angle compared to the body.
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? |
