That’s Deep Blue, they think she’s the biggest white shark ever filmed
Of course it’s a girl. She’s beautiful and I’ll keep my hands inside the cage at all times
I…I love her.
My daughter is beautiful and strong.
her dorsal fin is longer than a full grown adult but I in all my 5’2" glory still wants to protect her
I am, I believe, the reasonable amount of scared of sharks that a smart soft mammal should be, but I definitely just said “whos a big pretty girl” at the screen.
Thank you, tumblr, for reminding me that things I’m afraid of are beautiful too.
So I got curious and look this giant up and found this picture of the diver high fiving her as she passed. According to the article, not only is Deep Blue big but in the picture she’s super pregnant too.
Near run-in between Common Dolphin and Pacific White-sides.
The White-sides were now riding for a few minutes prior- the Commons approaches but it almost seemed like the White-sides chased them away and then came back to bowride.
It’s always interesting to see how different species interact with each other.
“Eye Spy” by photography Mark Seabury, from the Smithsonian Photo Contest. Photographer’s note: “This photograph captures a whale behaviour called ‘spy hopping’ where whales poke their head above the water to take a look around and see what is happening above the surface. Whales have extremely good vision and so I have always found this behaviour intriguing and I wonder what they are thinking when they are ‘people watching’ in this way. To me this is such a special moment where I can’t help but feel that on some level we are bridging the gap between land and sea.”
