  • There are 12 living Orders of sharks and rays swimming in our oceans today, and more than 440 known species. Here are some of the wackier ones!

  • @HamzaSayedAli

    I think that if I were in any of these orders, I'd be in the Squaliformes. "Sleeper Shark" is a pretty accurate description of my work habits.

    There is a green sawtooth at the Shedd Aquarium. She usually stays still in the back of the big reef tank, but it's totally worth the (sometimes long) wait to see her move. Such an amazing sight!

  • @davinatomlin5943
    @davinatomlin5943 10 лет назад +2

    It's so strange that we never hear about these types of sharks, society is so fixated on the Great White, which true, is a fearsome creature. But a shark that can hyper-extend its jaw? Poisonous skin? That's an incredible force of nature! I would love to hear more about how those sharks feed, mate and just generally live life.
    Also, not particularly science-y, but that dress is fantastic. I also appreciate strange pieces of the sharks you show as well as the pictures and videos. The devil baby and saw nose add a different and intriguing dimension to the information.

    I had no idea Tiger Sharks and Great White Sharks were in different FAMILIES. I would have thought they were as close as a donkey and a horse!

    • @Dman9fp
      @Dman9fp Год назад

      Yep sharks from those seperate Orders last shared a common ancestor during the age of dinosaurs in the Jurassic period (so sharks like those evolved to be apex hyper-predators completely independently)
      ^ Shark tooth collectors can especially notice this, given how different great white and tiger shark teeth are. Tiger shark teeth closely resemble the relatively blunt and angled blades of a saw blade, while great white teeth are much more elongated and either broad (upper jaw teeth) or slender (lower jaw teeth). Even if both are still very effective and serrated like steak knives

    Shark Week was never a great time for me, because I never understood the mania of it. Sharks are just another part of life to a sailor, like any other fish. They are always with us, just take one of those helicopter rides up a coastline and you will see hundreds of them just offshore everyday. For the first time the Brain Scoop has made me love this week, with its interesting facts. Emily did an awesome job on the writing and her pronunciation of all those polysyllables was as much fun to listen to as was the video to watch. I loved it all, and while as a scientist Emily is definitely fantastic and fun to watch with her enthusiasm, I must say I was astounded by that saw. What an awesome planet we live upon. I can't wait to hear and see more.

    Also, I really hope you all some more detailed episodes on predatory cartilaginous fishes before next year's designated consecutive calendar days. There are so many specialized and uniquely fascinating species to explore and clearly the Field Museum has no shortage of specimens. I desperately want more content about sharks that showcase their amazing qualities without resorting to sensationalism and outright lies.

    @arjovenzia 5 лет назад

    Locally, we call the woe-be-gonnes, wobby-gongs. They're super cute! Kinda shovel-nose, kinda rays. They're pretty easygoing, they'll take your bait if your fishing for bottom-dwelling fish, but dont fight. Just let themselves be pulled up. Also called gummy sharks... no teeth, just gums, easy to de-hook. You can pet them before you de-hook, they dont thresh around till you take em outta the water. Kinda considered a good omen, your in a quiet hole, and the local wisdom is, if you dont spook the wobbigong, the other fish are likley to bite. Freak out the wobbigong, you wont catch a thing. Just be cool man, be cool.

    Love your content, this channel is a dream for lovers of learning and especially science and nature like myself and many there's! I do however have a question, why are Carcharhiniformes called "ground sharks"? When you said they were ground sharks I expected you to say that they were sharks such such as wobbegongs, nurse sharks, angle sharks and epaulette sharks because of their bottom dwelling or "grounded" nature. Blue sharks especially, seem to be just the opposite of that as they are capable of traveling through thousands of miles of open ocean. Keep up the great work!

    This video was interesting; I think the only improvement you could have made was a tree graphic showing us how the orders were related. I mean, are all the orders separate? Or are some grouped? Oh, and I've never been in the water with a Manta Ray, but I've been in the water with Eagle Rays, and they're faster than they look on video.
