fucking sharks
Attachment 464741
Woah, that looks like a big boy. What kind was it?
Salmon Shark?
I loved all things shark when I was a kid growing up on the beach. Apex predators are badass.
bycatch
unfortunate too, because they're long-lived with low fecundity, and may be an important cog in the big transmission
Ah yeah, I remember seeing the segment on those on Planet Earth or Sharkweek a while back. Cool sharks, they look like mini Great Whites.Quote:

Is this the Jaws of our generation?

Jeremy Wade had an Alaska episode that shared some good info about these. Super interestingQuote:

"fecundity" is a word that should be used more here in the PR. That and "fructuous."Quote:

Maybe the shark got him?
Naw, the lithium batteries for the laser ignited and killed them both.
Jaws did a lot of that. I think he/she blew up in every iteration of the franchise.

You know some junior producer in Discovery's offices said during the planning meeting for this year's Shark Week, "OK, hear me out, we saw how well Cocaine Bear did right?!? So this year we do.... COCAINE SHARKS! Yeah? That's good right?"
Also, it would be neat if I didn't have to explain cocaine and how animals get it again to my kid.
"Look, the sharks probably get the cocaine the same way the bear did... No, we can't take the boat out lookin for sharks OR cocaine."Quote:

If they somehow work Bam Margera into Cocaine Shark then their producers just may be operating on a level greater than I have given them credit for.
I cant believe that they still haven’t done a cross over episode with Card Sharks
Whammy Shark!
I've got it. This year's Shark Week will be hosted jointly by Jason Momoa (cause apparently he already is) and a coked up Tara Reid, star of Sharknado.
Steve Sanders would like a fucking wordQuote:

Those people on the rafts to the right must have shit their pants.
Fuck being that close to a shark who’s in chase, bite, eat mode.
I’m working on a script.
SHART NADO
It’s like sharknado, but a bit more messy.
If Tara Reid is in it, it’s almost certainly going to be messy.
Also, Discovery may just be ahead of the game here with the cocaine bud and cocaine that programming.

Or that it’s Shark Week. Either way.

Would you look at that. Apparently Discovery was in on cocaine sharks before the tabloids. https://www.the-sun.com/tech/8645979...-eating-drugs/Quote:
