I'd love to hear the conversation between the aquarium workers when it's time to release the shark: "Ok it's time. Jump in there and get it and let's take it to the beach." "I was thinking you have more experience so maybe you should get it out of the tank." "No, I think you're ready for the challenge, Jim. You go for it." "I insist, bro...." "No, I insist..."
See, I find it surprising that unlike most aquariums, this one continues to capture Great Whites and keep them (to my knowledge) in good health. Then once its health starts to deteriorate, they release it back into the wild. As a fan of sharks ever since I was a kid, I'd love to see one of these majestic animals someday Nice touch on the Jaws song also. That movie's soundtrack is legendary and brings back good memories of my childhood
Soy Raúl de Valencia. Yo soy un enorme admirador y protector del gran blanco y si deseas verlos te recomiendo que hagas un viaje a México o a Sudáfrica dónde puedes contratar una salida para verlos en su hábitat natural, desde el barco o bien desde una jaula (yo lo haría en la jaula)
Incorrect. It is true that before 2002, no Great White had been successfully kept, but Monterrey changed that when they started taking in juveniles and keeping them in sea pens first. Their first GW THRIVED at the aquarium, and they hoped to keep her permanently. Unfortunately, she got too aggressive with the other animals (i.e., she ate them no matter how much they fed her), so they decided to only keep GW's until they reach a certain size.
I remember reading that they cannot be kept in captivity due to their swimming patterns or something like that. Hopefully this was taken into account when the exhibit for it was built.
They get caught so we can watch them for like 5 to 7 month. Then they die and will be replaced by another one. Great whites dont get very old they get like close to a year at max
@Jack the Gestapo so basically there have been multipile great whites in aquariums but they dont live very long. There is a video on yt about why you cant keept great sharks. They have a very short lifespan in captivity. In nature they get old af
@@trashman11there was a record that has been unbroken of a great white lasting 200 days before returning to the seas This was the beginning of a successful great white story But they are all juvis not adults
Great white sharks are pelagic, open ocean sharks, unlike most small aquarium sharks, which are bound to one place, so it's easier to recreate that habitat. So great whites don't do well/ aren't used to tanks and end up scraping the wall and bumping their noses. In japan, an aquarium had brought in an 11 foot great white shark, the first adult ever in captivity. However, after three days, it was dead. This proves that some sharks just aren't meant for humans to mess around with, as with all other animals on the planet. 🦈🦈🦈
It's really hard to keep them because they have a lot of dietary preferences. Also, they tend to bump their nose against the glass a lot injuring them and stuff. If you ever see a Great White in captivity for more than a month, it's most likely a juvenile because they're easier to take care of. The few adults they capture only live for a few days because they get depressed and refuse to eat.
@@tsthemagnet1645 Technically that one incident that gave Sea World a bad name Was on the employee for deciding to go to work and get in the water with that orca on that fateful day If that worker didn’t go into work, that event, may not have happened at all
Did you even read? It was for just a couple of months. They released her and tracked her afterwards, to see if it would keep living normal in the ocean, and it did.
Nice! I just saw the baby great white that they have there now. Sooooooo cool to see it so close up!! I have mixed feelings about them but nonetheless I am in total awe of these creatures!!!
I’m actually so very grateful that I had the very Chance Of Viewing The Reality Of The First Ever🦈Great White Shark🦈 Put on Display In the Monterey Bay Aquarium Back In The Year 2004 And Where In Which my Question Since Childhood Had Finally been answered when first getting word from my Grandma who lived in Monterey, Ca Just 30 Down the road from the Aquarium ❗️❗️❗️❗️ 😉😉😉😉😉🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈
For y'all saying its dead Ur wrong. I live in Monterey and what they do is they take a BABY great white to show us. (Not a lot though very rarely last time they did this was 2011) and once they feel The great white is to big they let the shark free in the ocean
in September 2004 Monterey Bay aquarium kept a great white for 189 days. it in their fish record which is on their website and the recorded uncut 24 hour videos of the great white. I think there is 32-40 videos
Camfre4k, of course sharks are dangerous animals, but so are more than half the animals on the planet. They are WILD animals, not pets or domesticated creatures. Every animal, can be in fact dangerous, and when you are in a presence of one, you can be in danger. What makes a shark any different? You should take caution in approaching ANY wild animal, not just sharks
@Badgerfilm I thought so. I saw an episode on Nat geo wild or Animal Planet I think it was Shark Week or something that's how I remembered about the great whites. But, I don't remember hearing about the juvenile whites temporary captivity, so thank you for that bit of info.TFS this video!
haha, I recognized the music from JAWS. the shark grew too quickly, and it seems that the GW sharks that have been kept in captivity do not last long, in theory from some sort of sensitivity to electrics in/around the tank. watched it on NOVA. we need to study the ocean to help save it and it's inhabitants.
White Sharks...the most beautiful creature in the ocean. Sad to think they are at serious risk of extinction at current shark fishing/fining rates. World would be a much worse place without these fish.
I would put on my dive gear and go in the tank i found out if you dont apose a threat they leave you alone i went out side of the cage in Australia with a pregnant great white out side she didnt mind me a bit i had my rebreather on no noisy bubbles she was a beauty there not mindless killers in my book just misunderstood animals and jaws gave them the bad reputation as killers i love all sharks and respect them
Not really Jaws is more of a product of a culture founded off of fishing and hunting and death reports although extremely rare for shark attacks to happen they still do happen I think its great to respect sharks but lets not forget sharks are apex predators they are just as beautiful as they are terrifying
@@joemamajoastar8708 not culture, it's based off of an actual incident that happened somewhere in the US in the early 1900s. Only difference I believe was that there were multiple sharks involved in that case, 2 if I'm not wrong. Up till that point scientists heavily debated over a great white's ability to eat humans, that incident gave conclusive evidence for verifying that they can eat us. The book n the subsequent movie were based off of that incident.
@Aaron Morgan no they got a young great white, it had human remains in its stomach and was declared the Mattawan maneater. It was later hypothesized however that there may have been more than a single shark involved and that's when the bull shark theory came into play because some attacks happened in the inland areas. On the other hand though, it is also said that Mattawan had high salt content in it and Great whites would have come in because of that.
poor sharks go crazy in those tanks, the only way to get an accurate picture of a sharks life is to study them in the wild not at an abusement park. wish humans would leave well alone
Actually if you take an animal from the wild into captivity, under proper conditions with a proper understanding of what it takes to care for them, they can live longer than they would in the wild. I study herpetology as a hobby and find it fascinating how in captivity ball pythons and burmese pythons can live 10 years longer in captivity as opposed to in the wild. I would imagine that the facilitators take measures to ensure that integrating the sharks back into the wild easily.
Why don’t you try same on your child or on your loved one’s ha? We put some of your loved one in cage with proper captivity. Fuckin dumb people NO livin creature deserves this treatment. Everyone living thing on this planet has equal rights as we humans have.
The music is annoying me! Trying to make this a happy thing. For those of you who don't know the shark died. Living in the tank caused so much damaged the shark couldn't function in the ocean anymore.
I still don't understand why everyone is so upset about that for the same reasons! If we keep them in their habitat, they can kill someone. It we keep them in Monterrey Bay for a while, we get to look at them, we learn more about them, and maybe they'll be less aggressive when we let them go. And it's not like posting that comment is going to help anyone. I prefer sharks not biting my head off.
*sigh* Sharks need to keep moving to keep water flowing through their gills so they can breathe. If the shark hits a wall in an aquarium, it has to quickly turn around and keep swimming. In the wild, that's not a problem, but if they're kept in an AQUARIUM TANK THEY MIGHT GET CAUGHT ON SOMETHING AND DIE! Also MBA tried this with 3 other great whites. They did fine in the facilities of the aquarium, but when they were released, they died.
That shark was not happy! You can tell just by the quick movement throughout the tank. She looked agitated. They need the ocean because they travel long distances.though people have tried, I just don't believe it would ever work to keep one in captivity. On another note, man! How awesome would it be to go on a shark diving tour to see them in their natural habitat!
I'm not an expert but fuck you anyway! I swear I fucking hate how some people are on the Internet. Much better to just not comment and move on instead of being a smart ass and try to rain on someone's parade.
baghdadwarrior03 I think they were fully aware that the shark was agitated they only captured her because back then people didn't know much about great whites
AWESOME!!!!!!!! The reason why it was released was because it "started to hunt"!!!!!! Before they wouldn't eat. This one did was its supposed to do and got evicted. What the need to do next is devote an entire tank just for a GW.
@jfkjrlover Like he said, Great Whites can grow to enormous sizes and can get into very aggressive states. If they were to keep it for the rest of its life, it is likely that it could get so aggressive that you couldn't even feed it.
What have you fed? White is spectacular to see the aquarium I hope you have released into the ocean, I hope you did before you do the test, how to attack surfers mistaking them for seals, however, I saw no outsider was calm you could see he wanted to go to sea opened here in Italy ... come to breed near Sicily ...
Humans: Let's learn about every living thing so we can use it to better us. Catch them and put them in cages and tanks and experiment.....o crap it died. Let's get another one
great whites are known to travel around the world just to feed, they can stay at the same place for quite a while in general so lol, not all animals behaves the same, some are exceptional and complex im no shark expect but i know quite a few things about alot of special species; shark families, killer whales, blue whales, tigers and lions and im pretty sure a shark can live pretty much forever at the same place if its big enough and has lots of food all day
I love when people say things like "it will help us broaden our understanding of the sharks". What is their to understand???? They kill, eat, poop, and make baby sharks. Am I missing something?
The last shark they kept died because it kept bumping into the side of the tank maybe they could put installation like mats on the sides maby then they could do it again
How many human get killed by sharks every year? 10. But how many sharks get killed by human every year? 100 millions. Who is the true killer? The sharks must be saved and this little female shark helps a little to understand more.
I think the first great whites they had didnt do so well. Some of the juveniles did alright, in fact so well that they were attacking and eating the other sharks, that's one of the main reasons they can't keep them for long too besides the sensitivity.
Are you for real? This is the great white shark, Carcharodon carcharias, also known as the great white, white pointer, white shark, or white death. This IS NOT a blacktip shark (Carcharhinus limbatus) or a blacktip reef shark (Carcharhinus melanopterus). And FYI:The great white shark have exceeded 6.1 m (20 ft) in length, and 2,268 kg (5,000 lb) in weight. This is a Juvenile female of only 1.52 m (5'3").
did i hit a soft spot there mate ?? is it so, that you in reality are dreaming of becoming a shark yourself.. ? or do you just go to the aquarium everyday and watch the sharks swim around, while you think you have some sort of special connection with it. You properly go around and tell people you brother is a shark hahaha.
Too bad that Great White was kept till it died, hopefully they will get the protection they need so Monterey will no longer be able to exploit such a rare animal for profit. If they wanted to learn about the White shark they would put a sat tag on it and release it like others are doing. Putting it in a tank to swim around till it dies is pure exploitation.
Did this one make it out alive? I've heard open ocean sharks like great whites are known to end up running into the tank glass like a bird on a window :(
i remember an aquarium in my city once told us when we wen't there for school that they had an adult great white shark but it damaged the glass and killed on of the smaller types of sharks so they had to get rid of it
@camfre4k ehm about the comment allergic to water. You know water is in almost everything you eat and drink? So being allergic to water won't let you live long. We aren't made for the sea, we don't have fins. Besides, you said sharks were killers, so i pointed out that humans are killers, and sharks are survivors.
I never said they don't have emotions or feeling did I, you're just coming back at me with a generic argument assuming that's the way I think. Why would you watch a video of a shark in an AQUARIUM if you don't like it being in captivity. Reasonable thing to do would be to not fucking watch it. And I'm sure they travel the same distance in a big tank, just generally through the same area, so the distance they cover in their lives is irrelevant. If an animal is well looked after where's the issue?
I'd love to hear the conversation between the aquarium workers when it's time to release the shark:
"Ok it's time. Jump in there and get it and let's take it to the beach."
"I was thinking you have more experience so maybe you should get it out of the tank."
"No, I think you're ready for the challenge, Jim. You go for it."
"I insist, bro...."
"No, I insist..."

The sharks mostly die or only last for a few days before being put back out to sea were the often die soon after

How exactly do they die when they're released?

That a lie

Can you not read 0:55 they specifically said they would release the shark whilst studying it
Hey the great white cant survive out of his habitat because he needs a lot of space to move himself

Came here after watching a video talking about great whites won't ever be in a aquarium
Beautiful creature
@Thoralmir how do you know? someone, somewhere may have but for such a rare occurence, having a camera would be unlikely !
I thought Great Whites couldn't be kept in captivity? O.o
That's why it was released later on.
Humans: Let's learn about every living thing so we can use it to better us. Catch them and put them in cages and tanks and experiment.....o crap it died. Let's get another one
Okay it's 2015 now. What did they learn by keeping a great whit captive for a few months?
great whites are known to travel around the world just to feed, they can stay at the same place for quite a while in general
so lol, not all animals behaves the same, some are exceptional and complex
im no shark expect but i know quite a few things about alot of special species; shark families, killer whales, blue whales, tigers and lions and im pretty sure a shark can live pretty much forever at the same place if its big enough and has lots of food all day
I love when people say things like "it will help us broaden our understanding of the sharks". What is their to understand???? They kill, eat, poop, and make baby sharks. Am I missing something?
i love shark week
It's an animal and a mysterious beautiful one at that. I don't see any monsters, lay off the disney cartoons.
The last shark they kept died because it kept bumping into the side of the tank maybe they could put installation like mats on the sides maby then they could do it again
How is that possible? I heard Great Whites don't last long in captivity.
How many human get killed by sharks every year? 10. But how many sharks get killed by human every year? 100 millions.
Who is the true killer?
The sharks must be saved and this little female shark helps a little to understand more.
I like how they play the music from jaws but not the evill thuna it's the music that makes me fell happy joyfull
Shouldn't be imprisoning these awesome creatures in tiny environments. Cruel
Goldfish just arent doing it for me anymore
Jurrassic shark
F.Y.I. 16 days later, the shark dies.
That is maybe why she will be released at a certain size as mentioned in the video :S
How did they recapture the shark once the study was finished, without risking harm to it or the researchers?
I think the first great whites they had didnt do so well. Some of the juveniles did alright, in fact so well that they were attacking and eating the other sharks, that's one of the main reasons they can't keep them for long too besides the sensitivity.
great music
Are you for real? This is the great white shark, Carcharodon carcharias, also known as the great white, white pointer, white shark, or white death.

did i hit a soft spot there mate ?? is it so, that you in reality are dreaming of becoming a shark yourself.. ? or do you just go to the aquarium everyday and watch the sharks swim around, while you think you have some sort of special connection with it. You properly go around and tell people you brother is a shark hahaha.
Too bad that Great White was kept till it died, hopefully they will get the protection they need so Monterey will no longer be able to exploit such a rare animal for profit. If they wanted to learn about the White shark they would put a sat tag on it and release it like others are doing. Putting it in a tank to swim around till it dies is pure exploitation.
amazing misunderstood creatures
I hope her release went well.
Nope. She died. Like all before her.
@@persephone2706 No, #5 was the only one who died.
Did this one make it out alive? I've heard open ocean sharks like great whites are known to end up running into the tank glass like a bird on a window :(
i remember an aquarium in my city once told us when we wen't there for school that they had an adult great white shark but it damaged the glass and killed on of the smaller types of sharks so they had to get rid of it
what aquarium? and in what city? There only about 2 aquariums in the world that have great whites in captivity.
+ImKoalified I forget the name of the aquarium but it did happen, only two sharks were killed not one
I never saw great white shark I only saw tiger shark
@camfre4k ehm about the comment allergic to water. You know water is in almost everything you eat and drink? So being allergic to water won't let you live long. We aren't made for the sea, we don't have fins. Besides, you said sharks were killers, so i pointed out that humans are killers, and sharks are survivors.
don't get to close to the glasses
WHO WOULD WIN...
A GREAT WHITE SHARK IN AN AQUARIUM
OR
A WHALE SHARK IN AN AQUARIUM
A whale shark, it can live longer than a great white in captivity
I never said they don't have emotions or feeling did I, you're just coming back at me with a generic argument assuming that's the way I think.
Why would you watch a video of a shark in an AQUARIUM if you don't like it being in captivity.
Reasonable thing to do would be to not fucking watch it.
And I'm sure they travel the same distance in a big tank, just generally through the same area, so the distance they cover in their lives is irrelevant.
If an animal is well looked after where's the issue?
yet the shark died 6 days after being released...
