Voiceover: I know what you’re thinking, “there’s sharks in the water, am I in danger?”
Camera cuts to the smallest, most goober shark ever
Media loves to scare people for ratings, views and money.
😂😂😂
🤓
Oh I'm pretty sure it looks dangerous
The shark: harmless and look small.
Didn’t they say it grows to ten feet long and eats seals?
So, it's not a new species, it's a first sighting of a common species.
Its not a common species, seven gills are the only sharks with seven gills and they are not aggressive to humans and they are hunted by Orcas, also one of the oldest shark species in existence
@@rig2037they are dangerous though
@@vuthearithkeary4704ok?
@@vuthearithkeary4704 no they are not
@@Lucas-gr2wb seven gills are dangerous
People misread the title. It's not that they discovered a new species, it's that they discovered a species that's not usually in this area. Sevengills are usually deeeeeep sea sharks, and their teeth are highly prized by fossil collectors. The puget sound is VERY deep, creating a perfect habitat.
The title is poorly worded
And I didn't hear them mention whites as a possible Pacific NW shark.
No, they miswrote the title.
Actually broadnose sevengills are relatively midwater sharks, often observed hunting for seals fish and crustaceans among the kelp forests that riddle the shallower coasts of the Western US. They're somewhat rare as they are mostly nocturnal and hunt their prey at night for the most part. While they certainly can dive to great depths, most individuals prefer a depth range of only about a few hundred feet.
Didn't know they can grow up to sssssssssss ten feet. Impressive 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
So it isn't a new species, just new to Puget Sound. Is that right?
Probably been there all along. Seven Gill isn't an especially aggressive shark. It can be aggressive if provoked. The number of attacks on humans is so small it might just as well be a statistical anomaly.
Not new to the Puget Sound at all, news station is pretty late to finding out that's for sure lol. The Seattle Aquarium had a special information area all about them for several years.
Yeah. That's what happens when you don't pay attention in English class. I swear they must just completely stopped teaching and practicing "comprehension".
The news is useless by design.
@@nhansen197 lol no
Sharks are seriously so cool. I wish people appreciated them more.
ikr, sharks are blessed with long life!
I guess you have not been around them very much. Me being a long time commercial fisherman that wouldn't be my words for a shark
@@waltergurly4040 without sharks, the ecosystems that provide you with the fish you catch would collapse
@@TroodonJesus156 their is always another predator to take ones shot. It will not collapse
@@waltergurly4040 sharks tend to be at the top of the food chain in most of our planet's oceans. 99% of the time, removing an apex predator does not bode well for the rest of the ecosystem, as evidenced by the disappearance of wolves in Yellowstone National Park
They aren't new... They've known about them for some time being in the sound. I remember when they had a special little information area at the Seattle Aquarium for them 🤷🏼♀️
That's for six gill
@@duckwacker8720 and the special was because they were suddenly everywhere, then just as suddenly, scarce.
What? 7 gills have been there forever.
Yeah, I remember over 20 years ago going to a museum with a aquarium like area that said there were sevengills in our puget sound waters. I remember that I was fascinated, that was the first time me ever learning about these sharks.
I felt honored that our ecosystem had these awesome deep water sharks like that. So this video really really confused me- as that's old news?
That was sixgills, and the sevengills are now being found way, way south near Shelton/Olympia in much shallower water.
Those have been in puget sound forever. My friend is a professional diver. He told me about seeing this species in Commencement Bay 20 + years ago. This must be a slow news day. Nobody got shot today. But that's a good thing. 😂
There's been 7 gills in the sound forever. more so up in the San Juans and out the straits. Newly discovered? Not.
They're up into the Canadian Gulf Islands too.
Don't think you have the authority to make this claim or the education to make this claim.
@@Yinzermakesvids if he's a native, he does.
Like that "flying spider" new discovery. Scientists should try to get out more often. LoL
@@YinzermakesvidsI do since I've been catching them from 2000 until now. I've caught 5 seven gill 100's of six gill in the Puget sound. There's more seven gill on the coast.
Literature when i was a kid claimed 250 known species of shark...today we are more than twice that number! awesome.
not gonna lie, small and baby sharks are really cute
Now that's fascinating for 🦈 Week. But a Sevengill 🦈?! WOW!
I caught an 8ft Salmon Shark off of Les Davis fishing pier last night 07/28/2024 while 6 Gill fishing
I def caught a seven gill off of the Tacoma pier in 2003. Even called the fish and wildlife authorities like the sign said to. Why did it take them 21 years to determine they live there?
Look around, its half in the Trident pink salmon can, its other half is ptsd from bait hook release trauma. Hook it, cook it, or else. Throw backs never return to the life they once had.
Well timed. Right in the middle of Shark Week.
It’s crazy because they were discovered right in front of my house I was watching them
My big brother used to catch shark in his rubber raft out there! He came home once with a big hook hooked into the back of his head! Mom iced it well, while putting pliers, needle & thread in rubbing alcohol! Then poured some on too! He did have to bite a bullet, but never uttered a peep! 💪He was later an underwater welder in the Navy!💪🇺🇸❤️
We've been catching six and seven gill from Willapa Bay to Commencement Bay for years. These come into the sound to have babies. Also the best bait for six and seven gill is dog shark.
cool, was saying the same thing, its a little up stream saw one Snoqualmie, had signs out saying to not go near the stream. I'm aware of these my whole life, this guy with the hook trauma is imparting major ptsd. Google fish ptsd from hook throwbacks, never throw em back after catching them. Science says its super sad, they never live like they once did ever again.
Them sharks been in that water since forever
Yeah, we are land mammals,....way scary in them waters.
No, they're relatively new where they're being found NOW.
@@AhNee we’ve been catching them in the sound for over 15 years. They’re nothing new.
@@armon82638 Not. seven. Gills. Sixgills, yes.
@@AhNee nope we’ve been catching seven gills for the better part of 20 years. It’s very easy to tell the difference between a six gill and a seven gill. Six gill only have six gill slits and do not have speckles like a seven gill
I very much remember going to Tacoma from southern Idaho so my dad could go with my uncle to go dogfish fishing in the early 70s. Sounds like we need more of these 7-Gills and for them to go up the Columbia to get rid of seals there!
I saw them out there the other day :) didnt even know they were researchers doing stuff, there were so many floaters out that day!
Fun fact: Sharks are older than trees
See what happens when you look around
😂😂😂
Not sure but we used to talk about 7 gill sharks for many years. The dogfish population was down and there are Salmon Sharks that look like Mako sharks that eat salmon. Glad they are tracking those very old 7 gill sharks. Where can you see the footage from the cameras.
Salmon shark look like Great White.
@@duckwacker8720 I think so to. If you look at a Mako mount especially a smaller one they look like a salmon shark. Mean little F’ers. They will tear up seine nets to get to the fish.
That was sixgills.
@@AhNee You are right. It’s a mutant from climate change. They needed one more set of gills for low O2 in lower Puget sound
@@thereissomecoolstuff Thanks, Mr. Point
Just in time for Shark week
1:06 It looks like some kind of prehistoric sea creature ?
I'm excited for shark week. I look forward to it every year.
Saw dogfish sharks fished out of Port Orchard city limits off a kayak!
Cool stuff
Alert! News station just discovered a new breed of cow in Washington pastures called a Holstein.
This isn't new at all. I've been fishing multiple times there with my aunt who lives on Bainbridge island. We've known about these for over 30 years and I don't even live in Washington.
Just saw this shark in the Monterey Bay Aquarium 🤔
This would be a fun day at work
It's not even a slow news cycle in the last 24 hours, or anything
Hey Dave, nice to see you working with your favorite species again. Have fun! :)
Not new, but rare in the area.
Shark: I've always been here
In WA we don't have aggressive sharks the water stays to cold year round they tend to be slower and more lax as well as the fact that most of them are bottom feeders (eat dead things ) more often than eating live animals wolf eels in the PNW can have attitudes bigger than any shark in this area.
babe, wake up
a new shark just dropped
every year I watch shark 🦈 weak on discovery channel and every now and then they come across a new species or so. Some sharks have been around for years and they're just discovering them now. So this was awesome to watch.
New shark species discovered? Alllllllrighty then
And you all went to college? Fascinating.
Is it off the coast if it’s in the sound? I would think offshore would be more clear.
Is this video from 2003 and uploaded in 2024? Or was it actually taken in 2024 and then uploaded? Because according to google they have been sighted in Puget Sound since 2003.
What is wrong with people. It not new. Damnit 😂
He was going to say it can grow up to 6 ft then he said 10 😂😂😂 trying to tell fibs to the people
Oh. It's just facts. Like how the 7 gills range is from the western Pacific to the eastern Pacific...
"previously unidentified" would be more accurate than "new" species, it's always been there.
The ocean is so large and we know so very little about it and what lurks in its depths
So true!!!
Mother Nature is active and well
If we are still discovering new species of seven feet long predators that lurk mere meters away from residential areas, imagine what species we haven’t found that exist 5000 feet away from human civilization.
A bit behind the times, dudes. We've had seven-gill sharks in New Zealand for at least 60 years.
It is common enough to have them in the state fishing regulations. I saw a 14 foot one caught and released off the piers in Seattle .It was never taken out of the water.In ways not as impressive as the Salmon sharks which come near shore on the surface during pink salmon runs.
7 Gills do not target seals nor sea lions, and they are not a "new species".
That’s not a new species, it’s new to the area.
To be clear .. a fisherman alerted them of the 7 gill. The government employees only confirmed.
News station needs to do more research before hand
How is this news worthy? It's not a new species. Some egghead catches a 7 gill and is like "I guess there's 7 gills down there!"
Lol 😂
Wow n we thought it was All discovered!!
Headline is misleading!
The shark: "I drank the water."
Google says the Sevengill Shark was described in 1807. Could this be a new species of Sevengill (as in Sevengill being used more as a genus than a species) or subspecies? Or did they just get this part completely wrong?
The seven-gill isn't a newly discovered species. Its only recently been found to inhabit Puget Sound.
So absolutely wonderful! Sharks are so important to our waters and health of our seas! Not scary just PLAIN COOL!!!
First, the 7 gills get much much bigger than 10 feet. Second, the most populous area for them is actually just off seattle. Third, 7 gills are primarily scavengers that feed at night. Shark week did a special on them about 10 years ago and had a video of a large shark in the neighborhood of 14 feet.
Why are there so many cuts in this and why are some of them the same? It’s like a strobe light
Meg is out there still believe it
Yeah we haven't explored all of the
ocean
Animal abuse means if you hook it you don't cook it, it retains ptsd.
Love seeing new scientific discoveries in our region. So glad i decided to go to OSU for Wildlife Biology. Making us proud, Beavers!
A new species wasn't discovered. This was a new record of a species.
What?? Who actually "surfs" on Puget Sound?! There are no waves in the bay, those are on the coast. 🙄
God, this was hokie.
is this on harstine island?
The sixgill shark has been awful quiet since this dropped
1:07 Ok, for a moment I thought that was either a Xenacanthus or an Orthacanthus, lol.
Both are shark-like fish that died out hundreds of millions of years ago.
There has been a new speices of shark found by Austrilia but that was like 15 years ago.
I hear about bicatch seven gills coming up in nets around Westport Washington every once in a while
"These animals have been here longer than any of us." New article is literally about a new species of shark never before seen in the Puget sound.. 😅 Historical shark attack data wouldn't include this shark that "can reach lengths of up to 10ft." Most of the shark species in the Sound are smaller and wouldn't attack a person. These 7 gill sharks are larger and absolutely capable. Let's see what the data says in another 25 years from now. I'd be more cautious about being in the water. 🤔
Yeah good job noaa on the awesome boat awareness coming a few yards off of boats coming way to close to divers in the water hats off

We discovered a new shark species before GTA 6
Probably isn’t new to Puget Sound, just new to researchers from the area
"DayV" LOL
I caught a Dogfish one time off the docks by the zoo, drawing a blank but the 5 mile hike is there. Um... Yeah, fish off the tall docks, only one I ever saw, and I never thought to count the gills.
May have been a ratfish...
Shows how reliable they are at catching a seven gill I didn't see one on the video
If they fished at night from 30-100' of water.
OPB made a documentary on this 2 years ago.
Didn't know there were that many species in the sound.
I looked up the sharks on the internet and they either look like they're constantly pogging or they look like Muppets, I don't know why anyone would ever be afraid of these goobers.
Looking like a politician 😮😮😮
To Fox 13 Seattle, the seven gill shark is not a "new species" like you claim maybe the fact you've never seen it in Puget Sound but that shark has been around seeing how we have it here off the coast of British Columbia, Canada
If your next to salt water. There is Sharks. Unless your Australia. Then all water has sharks.
The sharks give a great sign that the waters are healthy. Maybe they know to they are not hunted for ahatk fin soup.
People have known about those sharks being here forever. NOAA is just documenting them apparently. 😊
I been fishing these for years I can take yall on a guided trip I fish every year for these most of the info on em I had to learn on my own by fishing for them
I literally fish for these in Shelton for years
Not a new species, you lied. Thumbs down im out!
Man, Then I 6 Gilled Sharks were something strange.
Are you sure it's not a Fukushima shark ?
He anit nwe I seen one of those before in north carolina, that's where they at , I see them all the time , just swimming
Great white coming soon 🦈
As long as they don’t eat my crabs, squid, oysters and clams, I don’t care if they are there.
The Sound is too cold to swim in unless you have a dry suit
I knew that what about the local Great Whites
I have been a Com Diver here for 20 + years we have at least 9 species Or so big sharks
