We got a shark around.
Okay. I got one circling me at the surface.
The first shark to arrive on scene is just about eight feet.
This subadult male demonstrates the same behavior the team saw on the real whale
carcass approaching slowly circling and sizing up the decoy.
Shark circling you right now.
All I'm going to activate the meat locker now.
Any other patients want to come out?
Let's get this feeding frenzy started.
Is disgusting.
I'm in a washing machine of chum right now.
The meat lockers release dozens of pounds of chum in an instant.
While the chum bath can trigger a frenzy, it also cuts the visibility in half.
Making it hard for Austin to see incoming threats.
Shark on your right.
Aj Me?
I'm looking. I don't see it.
Okay. It's on your left now.
Going to the base. Okay, I got it.
I got it. I'm face to face with the shark right now.
Definitely showing the interest in all.
Then determining if this is something they want to investigate further.
This is what it's like to be inside a feeding frenzy.
Oh, don't look over there.
That's a mature male.
For example, here.
Off of New Zealand, Stewart Island.
Riley and Amber are trying to get a DNA mouth swab from a 14 foot male Great White.
Whoa! Oh, my God.
Oh, wait for it to stick around again.
Calculating.
Here we go. Here we go.
Are just too far away.
So what are we got here?
Oh, here we go.
You can turn it.
Let's go. The second shock is second shock.
Oh, good.
This one is only ten feet.
This is so head up.
I did not expect to see some adults down here.
This is a fantastic bonus.
Quite incredible to see this hierarchical display itself at all.
Really jostling with them.
The smaller shark aggressively swims at the larger adult.
It's almost reckless.
So down here, right.
So is so close because it hasn't learned yet that there's a very serious hierarchy here.
It's pretty phenomenal to see.
I will try to get us out, but watch yourself.
It comes. Are you out?
Amazing. Hey, Dad.
Comparing these samples to those collected from the Bay of Plenty, 800 miles north will
reveal if these populations are related.
Should we gather samples?
But this big shots out there on the periphery, you could just see them draw the.
Darts at surface and it shows a plan.
That, oh, man, look at that shot shell.
There's a male at your 3:00.
Healthy. Oh, this will become a story.
How long you live? The
scars on the snout.
Those are defensive play wounds from a battle with a seal.
Michelle, there's another male on your list.
This one has some really deep bites on it.
Look at those. Mehfils have some dream scoring as well.
There's a female coming in on your right.
We've got bigger females coming up now to.
We're headed down to the bottom now.
I'm coming up underneath.
Right in your seat. These are some really starting to get amped up.
But the more they thrash, the harder it is to make out the unique scarring patterns
everywhere.
Huge bite on the tail.
These female serfs are taking control of the surface.
He's going to have a go at the cage.
It comes in the couch.
The frenzy causes the cage to grow unstable.
They bring him up. Are you all good?
So the males in this area have way more interesting scarring patterns.
Michelle, there's a male.
Oh, that's what's coming. Sorry.
And it's.
The females in this area because they're bigger, they're more dominant.
They really don't have as many scars on them as the smaller males do.
The males have lots of different scars all up and down their body, including this male
that we saw with a really interesting scar around his tail.
Outside we have eyes on the hammerhead.
Oh, very close.
However, Duke is ready for battle.
I'm just a nightly habit on a live feed.
It was. Well, why should I be turned on a cone biopsy.
With this 12 foot hammerhead distracted by Roboshark, the team's free diver and biopsy
specialist rant jumps in the water so he can get in position for a tissue sample.
Check it out, man. It's circling.
He's gonna hit it. Oh, my God.
Whoa!
Oh, my God.
Shark has compromised his own vehicle in town.
By triggering a predatory attack from the Hammerhead.
Roboshark has done its job a little too well.
And with the shark leaving the area, the team calls the dive boat shark.
Druid people are behind it.
Oh, Roger. Roger.
You guys head back in.
I'll be back topside.
We're coming up. Oh, it feels like a cigarette.
You look at her go.
Oh, now she's going for her ovary.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
It's true, man.
Oh, yeah, she smashed it.
Just imagine what it'll do to the real thing, right?
What? Oh, come on.
What's taking so long?
All right, diver, coming up.
Hurry up. Hey.
Hey. Is.
You good?
Come on in. Come on in.
Hey, there's a lot scarier coming up than it was going down.
Yeah.
When you get left down there alone and then you go up, you're like, I hope they don't
forget about me.
You know, we could see a big fan from up here, so we thought for sure you had eyes on
him.
You know, I kind of felt there was something out there.
But to be honest, like the periphery, all we could see was basically pretty much a few
feet in front of us.
Hey, can you grab something?
It's from what.
I can see. Andy. But where's Corey?
I see the light, but I can't.
It's too.
Andy. Three.
I can't make it to you.
I got the line.
It's on the line. You can see.
Her. It's to your right.
Current. You are not kidding.
There could have been ten great whites down there.
We would have no idea.
It's probably one of the scariest things I've ever done.
Oh, talk about Sketchy.
