I like how people say that sharks are the most dangerous animal, but I don’t think that sharks can catch us and put us in tanks so we can be observed and suffer
Sharks don’t know it’s a human when they attack one, their vision isn’t that good and most of attacks are when they see their feet and think it’s a fish
They also has issues with some of them ramming the tanks because they were so sensitive to electromagnetic signals which they use to hunt prey and geolocate.
@@StonedtotheBones13 yeah. There are a lot of strong signals, most of which they don’t encounter. I would think their tendency to approach cages in open water might indicate the same issues. They’re just really sensitive
perhaps they could try putting strong magnets in the glass the would help deter the shark from bumping into the walls constantly. Sharks are attracted to magnetic signals, but strong enough ones will make them run.
@longstrongdong sharks are misunderstood. They usually only eat fish but when they see humans swimming they mistake them for fish. They do not like the taste of humans

The guy from the Monteray Bay Aquarium mentioned “our success”. What success? How is 6 months for a animal that should be living decades a success? The ocean and nature in general is a very complex system that we just can’t affectively replicate. Especially for animals who travel so many miles a day.
@@jasonpeacock9735 sharks naturally migrate and travel extremely long distances over the course of a year. Migration is critical for a lot of animals and when they cannot do that, it may take a toll of their body. Also it’s possible that their diet was not able to be replicated/varied enough to keep them healthy. They don’t have enough space in those tanks to reach their top speeds and really hunt the way they naturally do.
@Kate I agree with you, except for the first sentence. We learn from failure, but when it's a life in the game, the failure leading to death, I think is better to get all the information posibile before atempting. Those poor sharks died because the people that captured them didn't know their needs, they didn't know all the information they could get about white sharks. If there are more persons that are trying to do the same thing, that can lead to the extintion of the species. This is a really serious problem.
Why can’t we just stick to documentaries and studying them from the ocean? Most of us don’t even care after seeing them for like 5 minutes at most. Just leave them alone
*Living thing gets kidnapped and put in a small cage* *Dies of stress, boredom, depression, lack of space, injuries and bad diet* Humans: Gee I wonder why it died??
I got to see one of the great whites at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. You could always tell where she was because the other fish were all in the other end of the tank.
I was able to see a couple of them since I live here. The other fish would scatter if it came near. It was pretty amazing to see how the great white moves through the water. It was like no other shark I’ve seen.
“All these captive sharks were merely in the process of dying with some taking longer than others.” That basically sums it up. It wasn’t even mentioned how living in a tank would mess with their sensory organs which I would argue is the most important reason they can’t survive in walls.
Humanity reasoning...🤦🏼♀️ And for humans viewing pleasure. Especially when they're not thriving. I get zoos but you can't keep animals where they're miserable.
Chris Conaway New Zealand is on my list of countries I still want to visit and I'll definitely make some dives when I eventually do, but I've had a great experience in South Africa with white sharks up close. I got recomended to go to Gansbaai, because there had been more sightings there in the past weeks, but I've heard people who were positive about Seal Island...
@ilovepancakeswithjam Some animals do need to be in captivity until there are enough to save their species like he says, would you rather some species dying out instead of saving them even if it implies putting them in captivity? Maybe other non endangered species arent supposed to be there but endangered species do need to be in captivity.
Great White sharks cannot be caged or tamed. The Devil's Teeth : A True Story of Obsession and Survival Among America's Great White Sharks by Susan Casey is a great book, I highly recommend it.
i adore all sharks and they've been my favourite animal for a very long time. i feel as though some sharks just arent fit for captivity- but this sentiment isnt just for sharks alone. it should be said though, the effort taken that first time to keep them alive is nice. its very sad about how they continued to get injuries in captivity. i really hope everyone just stops trying to display big and fast sharks, they arent able to survive... its better if everyone focused on placing protections for sharks and not spread false negative information about them.
Lol. You aren’t wrong, but they did have good intentions, you know. They were trying to see how to keep it in captivity to give it a healthier, longer life. Sadly, that just isn’t plausible for some animals. Many, many animals do amazingly in captivity because there are many less hazards, and because their habitats and diets are easier to recreate. Great White Sharks just don’t have a habitat that we can recreate in captivity. People are now, instead of keeping them in captivity and killing them, tracking them in the wild instead. This means we get to learn from the sharks, and they get to keep on living their lives.
@@someonewhoexists7350 In the end, Mother Nature will always win. Some animals thrive better in their own, natural environment. It's best we leave it that way
@@4581-z8w 458 123 I agree, and I think that in the end they really were just trying to get more visitors because they had a great white shark.

I think you have to be really careful lumping all zoos together. I used to work at one, and everyone I worked with considered animal well being to be the number one priority, with the number two priority being conservation and all the efforts that are being done to increase wild populations.
Many zoos also have breeding programs for all kinds of species, endangered or not, and learn even more about the species during the breeding, and rearing process. All this knowledge and information is shared with visitors, organizations, and other programs alike. There are certainly zoos that do nothing but display animals, but so many have broadened their exhibit goals, and expanded their species scope of responsibility, that each zoo really needs to be judged on it's own merits.

Brittany Reed sharks have a right to freedom. and let's think of why sharks die in tanks: depression, boredom, lack of movement, lack of respect and a horrible diet. if sharks have a Moses I'm going to be really scared.
@@Amy_the_Lizard There's obviously a world of difference between dogs and white sharks though. Domesticated animals have gone through literally thousands of years of human-controlled selective breeding to make them better suited to being domesticated, making them friendlier and often smaller, more docile and easier to tame. Even less intensely breed creatures that we have as pets like various lizards and birds are smaller and easier to take care of, yet a lot can go wrong with them too. In fact essentially all domesticated creatures can still massively suffer mental and physical issues from improper care. The only exception probably being like, insects. So imagine trying to adapt a great white shark, even a relatively small or young one, to living in captivity in a small environment, after being corralled and transported which is often a hugely stressful thing for them. The whole process is an absolute nightmare for those sharks, they're massive, incredibly powerful creatures, it would take centuries of breeding to get them anywhere near naturally ready to live in such small, controlled environment, by then they'd have to be much dumber and docile, it really isn't worth it.
@@goten339 I wasn't saying that it wasn't horrible for the sharks, nor was I denying that animal abuse happens - obviously the animals being abused or improperly cared for are miserable. I was simply pointing out that plenty of domestic and captive bred animals are in fact perfectly happy, because it makes me mad when people act like ALL the animals in captivity are miserable because it simply isn't true.
its simple why they run into walls... they are asleep and running into a wall every 5 minutes while asleep could rlly f*ck with your head and they possibly could be dying from lack of sleep...
"Died shortly after being released" Because we took it out of its natural habitat for months and took vital survival instincts away from it. Zoos and aquariums are just prisons for our entertainment, and it saddens me.
Zoos have research programs that help expand our knowledge about animals, especially the endangered species. The information gained by these programs can help protect, and treat the species in the wild, as well as determine what affects if any climate change may have on the regions needed for the species to flourish. Many zoos also have breeding programs for all kinds of species, endangered or not, and learn even more about the species during the breeding, and rearing process. All this knowledge and information is shared with visitors, organizations, and other programs alike.

Nima Anjam not "imprisonment". Zoos and aquariums donate millions upon millions every year to conservation which in fact saves those species' in the wild. Without zoos, we wouldn't have the California condor, the golden lion tamarin, and many other wonderful creatures.
We could do the exact same thing, but replace traditional zoos that house perfectly healthy animals for literally no reason, with animal sanctuaries and breeding programs for animals in danger or impaired in a way that would leave them to die in the wild.
Great Woody Allen quote! I’ve always wondered if Woody ever learned that some shark species have evolved to retain their buccal (cheek) muscles and are perfectly able to stop moving for as long as they want without any ill effect...? 😂
I think they do need to see one. It would probably help it's image, not to be seen as monster anymore, but as the fascinating animal they are. Though since they don't do well in captivity I'm glad they didn't keep trying.
I’m not against animals in zoos, apt of them are endangered and zoos bring their numbers up. But seriously, if it’s tried multiple times and still fails it’s obviously not gonna work
It will, no one ever found a cure for a disease on their first try. They failed and tried again. Though this one is kinda sad for the future when sharks starts to go extinct it will be helpful
@@megburrows2810 Yes, but not because of the ones that put them in Aquariums, so if we stopped doing that then the only thing we'd achieve is great whites ceasing to exist in general instead of outside of fish tanks.
i think the question is why dont white sharks fit, but other fishes and sharks do fit. its not something really obvious. get off your highhorse tbh, i really do wonder why they dont survive because others do.
zoos and aquarium actually serves a purpose in conservation,at least the good one does. Not only do they provide educational means the staffs are actively engaged in the endeavor
Their echolocation needs to be in a limitless field. I’d imagine the vibration they perceived was an ever increasing cacophony bouncing off the walls of the enclosure, akin to severe vertigo
Project "Aware" foundation is one of the leading shark conservation groups. This video totally made me cry and we should definitely try to support some of these organizations to save our brothers and sisters in the ocean.
@@sori4ever No it's for education, We may mix entertainment values when teaching others, but I'll learn more from being entertained then simply being bored and waiting, we can learn limited info when they are in the wild as it would take resources to continue tracking an animal for study. Hence aquariums and zoos, plus it makes it easier for the public to learn about them
I feel so bad for these sharks, even if they are scary up close or interesting to look at , they didn't deserve death. This video was excellently made! Well done to all involved. Thank you for your research.
Hey, all the other sharks died within days after first arrival, if you didn't listen to the video. I think it is a success because what if great whites were on the brink of extinction? Human captivity has helped animals from the brink of extinction before.
Because they accomplished something nobody had even come remotely close to. When everyone else can only do it for a couple days, and you do 60+ times better than that, thats pretty successful. In science, even failures are an accomplishment, so long as progress is made/something is learned.
I think aquariums are cool but I don't believe in captivity of migratory animals. I'd love to see a whale shark but I can't bring myself to pay to see such an amazing and majestic beast in what's essentially a prison.
I find it hard to imagine how people who dedicate their lives to studying these animals still repeat failed attempts to put them in unnatural captivity
I think the people who are trying to put them in unnatural captivity are the ones trying to make money off of them. The people who are actually studying them usually study them in their natural habitat.
You can't study something without a controlled environment or a large enough sample size. You have neither of those with sharks. The fact is, having something in captivity to study is infinitely times more efficient and successful than long term (many generations worth of time) uncontrollable study.
@@Gulonine Nearly impossible sounds like a very subtle way of saying "not yet". The captivity is not the problem. The tank size and available recourses are.
I am glad that "Finding Dory" made a point about sharks bumping into the edge of the tank while in captivity, and the pair had the "Selma and Louise" moment at the end, in a good way.
never noticed they didn't have white sharks in aquariums, i didn't really acknowledge it, now that this video randomly shows up in my recommendations, im suddenly interested...
Plot twist: There are no great white sharks so that one doesn't smash the glass door like it did with Aquaman. You never know how many more Aqua people are out there
Bob Robert That's just like saying sharks lives are more valuable than humans and just because they had a great white shark, you get to laugh at them if they get shot..
Please stop. Also most zoos hold animals that can longer live in the wild, or else they'll die. As for aquariums, most if not all aquariums make it so that their tanks are similar to the great open sea the animals they'll hold are used to. They live comfortably. The sharks did not, of course, so this is why they stopped holding great whites.
Exactly! What if animals and humans switch places? We wouldn't want to be treated like that, now do we? But of course, humans wouldn't think about that because we're "superior" and "have more power to do what we want". What in the world does sympathy even mean anymore...
Whales swim from one side of the planet to the other every year and humans just assumed they’d be ok with a 100 foot aquarium. Sometimes I feel like we should go extinct.
I hate to see highly intelligent creatures in captivity. A crab would eat its mother and doesn't care about anything as long as it's kept well fed, but highly intelligent and social animals in captivity break my heart. Sea mammals, dolphins for instance, social and affectionate creatures used for entertainment purposes, so that people can interact with them and take cute pictures, that has to stop.
pincmin it seems like aquariums want to have A great white shark in it so no matter how many times people complain they still want to great white shark.
we humans have to love each other first. if we hate the world it's hard to love what's in it. love what you do, where you live, who you are with, and that will radiate and change people's lives. they will follow and get better bc you loved.
sharks are way dumber than dolphins, and are not mammals. the problem isn't how smart it is realistically, or if it even feels pain, that's just stories to make people feel bad for killing them by making them relate when they should feel bad for killing them because they're working towards destabilizing the entire ecosystem by killing off animals before they can get replaced in the local population. another example would be insects, which nobody feels bad for but are pretty important. squash mosquitos when they bite you, but if you go ahead and kill every single mosquito to stop the problem altogether you face a different problem, the fact that migratory birds would start dissapearing in certain seasons until they all go extinct, and then while the bird dies in some arctic region where it could've only really eaten mosquitos and other insects that can survive there, the insects from the warmer regions start to thrive by having fewer natural predators and you end up with more bugs from you solution of getting rid of bugs. and getting rid of every single bug to "solve" this problem would result in what would probably be the biggest ecological disaster imaginable so that's a big no-no.
It would be better for us to understand how great white sharks live for us to save them. The best way to do so is to leanr how to keep them in captivity. And we have learned far more from these attempts then we have from any other research of great white sharks. And currently, we still dont know how they breed, where they breed, what their patterns are, and so on.
@@emilyleepink6274 What if an aquarium dedicated it's existence to take in endangered fish to give them better and safer lives, like a retirement home but you're there for life
While I don't personally mind artificial animal habitats, seeing all the comments wildly opposed to the practice actually gives me hope for humanity. Never stop empathising with our fellow animals.
what you are thinking of is a roadside zoo.they take the name of zoo but are in it for profit and aren't recognized as a zoo by any organization. those places are more like roadside attractions then anything resembling a true zoo.
nature preserves just protect the land the animals live on.animal sanctuaries provide homes for animals that were once kept as pets or abused by people. zoos keep animal populations going through breeding programs.it's thanks to zoos pandas are no longer endangered just vulnerable.black footed ferrets,red wolves,ect. haven't gone extincted. zoos also provide researchers with a chance to get up close to the animals which is important to learn about animals social behaviors,breeding habitats,ect. which is really important information for making nature preserves in the first place. they also take in non releasable animals.like predatory birds that can no longer fly or polar bears that got dangerously use to people. their education programs get kids interested in animals and conservation in a way a picture on a computer just can't do. truth be told most zoos are almost broke.not going to zoos isn't saving animals it's going to cause many animals to get wiped out. zoos aren't for profit and you should probably stop getting your info from peta.cause peta doesn't want to help animals at all their agenda is to kill every single animal cause they believe animals don't deserve to live and will do anything to accomplish this goal including spreading lies about organizations that help animals,harass organizations that help,support places that do kill animals and pretty steal every animal they can and kill it.but most poeple don't know this cause peta knows how to manipulate animals lovers emotions cause they know you are emotional you aren't going to actually go do to deep into researching every aspect of the subject.
@@joannlumalangcatibog If you watch the video you will see that aquariums continued to capture and keep sharks even when they knew the animals couldn't survive in that environment.

We don't need bring these animals to us, we need to go them; create an underwater observatory directly in their natural habitat so that we can observe them without obstructing their lives.
Easier said than done, as mentioned in the video these species love to aimlessly roam around miles of ocean at high speed and never stay in one location for long. So a single location wouldn't see much most of the time, and most people wouldn't be willing to sit in one location staring at boring, unchanging, usually murky open ocean for hours at a time.

The guy from the Monteray Bay Aquarium mentioned “our success”. What success? How is 6 months for a animal that should be living decades a success? The ocean and nature in general is a very complex system that we just can’t affectively replicate. Especially for animals who travel so many miles a day.
What’s preventing they sharks they kept from living for decades? Aside from the last of the six they had.
@@jasonpeacock9735 sharks naturally migrate and travel extremely long distances over the course of a year. Migration is critical for a lot of animals and when they cannot do that, it may take a toll of their body. Also it’s possible that their diet was not able to be replicated/varied enough to keep them healthy. They don’t have enough space in those tanks to reach their top speeds and really hunt the way they naturally do.
@@cherylcorbett5829 so, what’s preventing the sharks Monterey Bay Aquarium released from doing any of that?
The fact they died shortly after they were released due to long-term damage. It's very hard to live for decaded when you're dead.
@@Rachel-fi4sc when you say “fact”, do you have any evidence that the first five released great whites died “shortly after they were released”?

@Kate I agree with you, except for the first sentence. We learn from failure, but when it's a life in the game, the failure leading to death, I think is better to get all the information posibile before atempting.
Those poor sharks died because the people that captured them didn't know their needs, they didn't know all the information they could get about white sharks. If there are more persons that are trying to do the same thing, that can lead to the extintion of the species. This is a really serious problem.
Why can’t we just stick to documentaries and studying them from the ocean?
Most of us don’t even care after seeing them for like 5 minutes at most. Just leave them alone
There’s a thing called money
And people are willing to give it up to see some fish in a tank

I got to see one of the great whites at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. You could always tell where she was because the other fish were all in the other end of the tank.
I was able to see a couple of them since I live here. The other fish would scatter if it came near. It was pretty amazing to see how the great white moves through the water. It was like no other shark I’ve seen.

it should be said though, the effort taken that first time to keep them alive is nice. its very sad about how they continued to get injuries in captivity. i really hope everyone just stops trying to display big and fast sharks, they arent able to survive... its better if everyone focused on placing protections for sharks and not spread false negative information about them.
Okay, you need a large tank? I got an idea, HOW BOUT YOU LEAVE THEM IN THE OCEAN? WORLDS BIGGEST SHARK TANK!
Lol. You aren’t wrong, but they did have good intentions, you know. They were trying to see how to keep it in captivity to give it a healthier, longer life. Sadly, that just isn’t plausible for some animals. Many, many animals do amazingly in captivity because there are many less hazards, and because their habitats and diets are easier to recreate. Great White Sharks just don’t have a habitat that we can recreate in captivity. People are now, instead of keeping them in captivity and killing them, tracking them in the wild instead. This means we get to learn from the sharks, and they get to keep on living their lives.

All the creatures in captivity
@@samantharosepillay3962 Have you met a dog? Or any domesticated species for that matter?
I am sorry for my bad English it's not my first language.
@@Amy_the_Lizard There's obviously a world of difference between dogs and white sharks though.
Domesticated animals have gone through literally thousands of years of human-controlled selective breeding to make them better suited to being domesticated, making them friendlier and often smaller, more docile and easier to tame.
Even less intensely breed creatures that we have as pets like various lizards and birds are smaller and easier to take care of, yet a lot can go wrong with them too.
In fact essentially all domesticated creatures can still massively suffer mental and physical issues from improper care. The only exception probably being like, insects.
So imagine trying to adapt a great white shark, even a relatively small or young one, to living in captivity in a small environment, after being corralled and transported which is often a hugely stressful thing for them.
The whole process is an absolute nightmare for those sharks, they're massive, incredibly powerful creatures, it would take centuries of breeding to get them anywhere near naturally ready to live in such small, controlled environment, by then they'd have to be much dumber and docile, it really isn't worth it.
@@goten339 I wasn't saying that it wasn't horrible for the sharks, nor was I denying that animal abuse happens - obviously the animals being abused or improperly cared for are miserable. I was simply pointing out that plenty of domestic and captive bred animals are in fact perfectly happy, because it makes me mad when people act like ALL the animals in captivity are miserable because it simply isn't true.
its simple why they run into walls... they are asleep and running into a wall every 5 minutes while asleep could rlly f*ck with your head and they possibly could be dying from lack of sleep...

The information gained by these programs can help protect, and treat the species in the wild, as well as determine what affects if any climate change may have on the regions needed for the species to flourish. Many zoos also have breeding programs for all kinds of species, endangered or not, and learn even more about the species during the breeding, and rearing process. All this knowledge and information is shared with visitors, organizations, and other programs alike.

We could do the exact same thing, but replace traditional zoos that house perfectly healthy animals for literally no reason, with animal sanctuaries and breeding programs for animals in danger or impaired in a way that would leave them to die in the wild.

Please stop. Also most zoos hold animals that can longer live in the wild, or else they'll die. As for aquariums, most if not all aquariums make it so that their tanks are similar to the great open sea the animals they'll hold are used to. They live comfortably. The sharks did not, of course, so this is why they stopped holding great whites.
How about a human tank where sharks can come and see people

Whales swim from one side of the planet to the other every year and humans just assumed they’d be ok with a 100 foot aquarium. Sometimes I feel like we should go extinct.
I hate to see highly intelligent creatures in captivity. A crab would eat its mother and doesn't care about anything as long as it's kept well fed, but highly intelligent and social animals in captivity break my heart. Sea mammals, dolphins for instance, social and affectionate creatures used for entertainment purposes, so that people can interact with them and take cute pictures, that has to stop.

they still want to great white shark.

we humans have to love each other first. if we hate the world it's hard to love what's in it. love what you do, where you live, who you are with, and that will radiate and change people's lives. they will follow and get better bc you loved.
Britt Pomales The sad part is most, people are ignorant and greedy for money. ☹️
sharks are way dumber than dolphins, and are not mammals. the problem isn't how smart it is realistically, or if it even feels pain, that's just stories to make people feel bad for killing them by making them relate when they should feel bad for killing them because they're working towards destabilizing the entire ecosystem by killing off animals before they can get replaced in the local population.
another example would be insects, which nobody feels bad for but are pretty important. squash mosquitos when they bite you, but if you go ahead and kill every single mosquito to stop the problem altogether you face a different problem, the fact that migratory birds would start dissapearing in certain seasons until they all go extinct, and then while the bird dies in some arctic region where it could've only really eaten mosquitos and other insects that can survive there, the insects from the warmer regions start to thrive by having fewer natural predators and you end up with more bugs from you solution of getting rid of bugs. and getting rid of every single bug to "solve" this problem would result in what would probably be the biggest ecological disaster imaginable so that's a big no-no.
Here is what their thinking- They're not dying as fast. it worked.
So you get they're right the second time but not the first?

Very informative video! Thanks a lot for sharing this.
I encourage you btw to use the metric system since you are a huge channel! Love!
honestly this sounds horrible for sharks... they're already dying due to the affects of our actions, so we should just leave them alone
i read this with Steven voice xD
It would be better for us to understand how great white sharks live for us to save them. The best way to do so is to leanr how to keep them in captivity.
And we have learned far more from these attempts then we have from any other research of great white sharks. And currently, we still dont know how they breed, where they breed, what their patterns are, and so on.
zCeras Only a dozen or so humans are ATTACKED, not killed, by sharks every year. The total fatalities are a couple.
shut up and don't eat fish so
If we leave them alone we can't continue research on keeping them alive, their habits and all in all how to stop us from killing them you idiot
When they showed the pic of the shark's injured nose :(
he booped his snoot to aggressively, snoot boops gotta be gentle.
Sharks don't have noses😂😂😂
@@miriamdragon5327 yeah they do?

Sharks and whales don't belong in tiny aquariums
They did put them in some of the biggest ones they had
aquariums are wrong all together
@@emilyleepink6274 What if an aquarium dedicated it's existence to take in endangered fish to give them better and safer lives, like a retirement home but you're there for life
I dont think any sea creature belongs in aquariums
Well no fish belongs to an aquarium
This was heartbreaking. So much effort, skill and energy deployed for the only sake of torturing and killing innocent animals.
While I don't personally mind artificial animal habitats, seeing all the comments wildly opposed to the practice actually gives me hope for humanity.
Never stop empathising with our fellow animals.
At least they tried to do it as safely as possible. I was surprised that they released them at all. I thought they just kept letting them die.
despite what many think zoos and aquarium are for research and conservation.not for torturing and profiting off of animals.
Brianna Harter i think youve only seen 1st world zoos
what you are thinking of is a roadside zoo.they take the name of zoo but are in it for profit and aren't recognized as a zoo by any organization.
those places are more like roadside attractions then anything resembling a true zoo.
zoo's and aquariums are completely for profit, it's animal preserves that help rehabilitate animals.
nature preserves just protect the land the animals live on.animal sanctuaries provide homes for animals that were once kept as pets or abused by people.
zoos keep animal populations going through breeding programs.it's thanks to zoos pandas are no longer endangered just vulnerable.black footed ferrets,red wolves,ect. haven't gone extincted.
zoos also provide researchers with a chance to get up close to the animals which is important to learn about animals social behaviors,breeding habitats,ect. which is really important information for making nature preserves in the first place.
they also take in non releasable animals.like predatory birds that can no longer fly or polar bears that got dangerously use to people.
their education programs get kids interested in animals and conservation in a way a picture on a computer just can't do.
truth be told most zoos are almost broke.not going to zoos isn't saving animals it's going to cause many animals to get wiped out.
zoos aren't for profit and you should probably stop getting your info from peta.cause peta doesn't want to help animals at all their agenda is to kill every single animal cause they believe animals don't deserve to live and will do anything to accomplish this goal including spreading lies about organizations that help animals,harass organizations that help,support places that do kill animals and pretty steal every animal they can and kill it.but most poeple don't know this cause peta knows how to manipulate animals lovers emotions cause they know you are emotional you aren't going to actually go do to deep into researching every aspect of the subject.
"we are going to need a bigger tank"
ppl are so retarded
why would they trap these beautiful creatures?? for "education"??
bullshit
Like a KingTiger or an M1 Abrams huehuehue
+bdN ^^this
a very very big tank
for you
Interesting, but very sad for the sharks. They need their freedom to move about.
***** Yes, I understand that. But sharks need to move constantly to breathe, hence the freedom of spacious waters. 😮
***** Not annoying at all, your heart's in the right place 💟 I'm pretty close to vegan 😊 How about you? 🐈
i say that they have to make a super big i mean like super big tank for the great white cause they dont like being in small places
Great White: "Give me liberty, or give me death!"
Heidi I saw a great white in an Aquarium in the early 90s, this is a lie
Most overlooked fact about why sharks aren’t kept in aquariums is that they attract tornadoes, and we all know what that leads to
So basically great white sharks are claustrophobic
...indeed...seems they are... :-(
Nawid Bosty they're afraid of Santa Claus?
can't they see from above
*LOL*
Poor creatures... it is so cruel to keep a beautiful, fierce, wild creature in a tank, trapped, alone and dying...
_95% Of the ocean isn't discovered yet. You wouldn't know anything about Animals, Fishes if they wont descover it._
It's not like they put the entirety of the shark population in tanks, it was just a few
@@joannlumalangcatibog
If you watch the video you will see that aquariums continued to capture and keep sharks even when they knew the animals couldn't survive in that environment. The best way to learn about things is to study them in their natural environment. People can easily study sharks in oceans. The sharks were kept in tanks purely to entertain people and make money.
@@JosephBallin320 That is not the point. These actions don't harm the species as a whole. That doesnt change the fact that these animals were captured, exploited and kept in tanks while the people who did this knew they couldn't survive in that environment.
@@elsasartor5596 It's either sacrifice a few of them or have people more cautious in water, bringing weaponry to defend themselves or them being oblivious to the danger and dying without anyone understanding what happened. These sacrifices are what brought us out of the religion is real and science is fake era of humans
They should just leave them be... humans always need to be bothering animals for no good reason
You say "they". Why not say 'we'. You're a human.
Straight talking maybe cause he’s not one of the people bothering animals?
@@hogz4660 Quite probably, but then he shouldn't have said "humans always".
Money......and we're the human race we can do whatever we want to creatures beneath us I mean a lot of people like cats and dogs right???
@@straighttalking2090 fr
Funny how they say “They’re not sure how the shark died”, when it probably died because of the countless amount of injuries formed in the tank where it was kept in. Poor shark probably had banged his head enough. 🤦♂️
This angers me, leave them alone! They are NOT here for our entertainment.
no but it’s typically for conservation preservation and awareness
oh also $$$
Actually they are, you're completely wrong :)
They are for our entertainment just like every animal that exist
@@Neverwasneveris just like you, i know where you live
I don’t agree with treating animals inhumanely but I do think they hold all kinds of secrets waiting for us to learn them and improve our lives in the process.
All that effort, money and killed animals just to entertain people...
not just to entertain... they prob used it as food for the other fish. no different than the cow that you ate for dinner last night only it didn't get a life extension while it was entertaining people.

I remember seeing that great white shark at Monterey Bay Aquarium as a kid and never knew what happened to it now I know.
Dang
Me too
and knowing is half the battle
Same goes for me, I was just happy that I got to see a Great White up close and didn't realize what was actually happening to it.
The Monterey Bay shark was returned to the ocean.
“When there’s a will there’s a way” this wasn’t suppose to be taken literal 🤦🏽♂️
Uh... unexpectedly got my heart broken by a youtube recommendation...
I just keep getting reminded of how awful humans are
Boo!

@@veryrare5473 Look, I know that its really Like Sad for those Animals And even the staff They have no choice they have no money thats why they do this just try to understand why do they do this? Ever think of that? IF you would do it If you were one of them.
How about just leaving them alone? Just my two cents.
agreed.
Hippie
Have you ever heard of studying things? It's much easier to study something if it's _right there ahead of you 24/7_
It's like fish keeping or ant keeping.
+Achtung_Spitfire it might be easier however extremely limted as you cant learn much about them in a small tank.
There's no money in leaving them alone
plot twist: build a absolutely gargantuant tank in the ocean
heres the solution: make a robot shark. boom instant increase in aquarium visitors

*throws you out the window*
Beautiful
Don't think we can loll like on we can even build a human robot
Or just bring in Kisame
"it's tracking tag revealed the shark died shortly after release, they're not sure why"
Oh really? They're not sure? Well I've got a few ideas...
Well I’m waiting
Me too.
They probably have some ideas as well, but they aren't sure and neither are you.
@@chachwa9970 Stress, probably. They aren't nearly as adaptable like other animals, such an humans, cats or dogs. They like to have a wide range of motion, and they are very mobile animals. They can't be moved from ocean to pen to tank and back again without suffering trauma
@@memeking6963 finally a kind of answer
We don't need bring these animals to us, we need to go them; create an underwater observatory directly in their natural habitat so that we can observe them without obstructing their lives.
That seems like a good idea. They could even drop food down there sometimes to gather more creatures in busy hours.
Easier said than done, as mentioned in the video these species love to aimlessly roam around miles of ocean at high speed and never stay in one location for long.
So a single location wouldn't see much most of the time, and most people wouldn't be willing to sit in one location staring at boring, unchanging, usually murky open ocean for hours at a time.
Best we can hope for is scuba diving under strict supervision and guidance.
It exists already
yes!!+
That's a good idea
