Bull Shark Dance!

Hammerhead! from the R.J. Dunlap Marine Conservation Program blog

What was I thinking!
Now that I see it, it was always clear that David would not engage in just any Shark dance but develop beautifully choreographed species-specific routines instead - and not only that, they are being subjected to instant peer review by none other than Dr. Hammerschlag himself, as it should be!
Now that I can see where this is leading, I can quite picture the routine for Hammerheads, see above, and maybe even that for Tigers - but I must confess that I can't wait to see the Thresher Shark dance!

I must say, I am deeply impressed!
Kudos for having had the vision of bonding exquisite artistic expression with research, conservation and outreach. This is smart, inclusive and eminently entertaining - and it works!
Awesome!

Absolutely adore the flowery shorts - but where are the de rigueur orange Crocs?

Enjoy!

A Shark Dance?


There goes the gravitas!
David aka WhySharksMatter has been outed as a consummate, and successful performer of arcane Shark attracting rituals.
Story here!

Can't wait to see his demo on YouTube!
Will it be indigenous like this one,



or more contemporary like this one (1:20),



or something more impromptu, but equally wonderfully choreographed like this one?
