Sometimes I see one of these guys when I go swimming off the point here- yesterday I realized that they're probably sharks (a bit slow on the uptake-) and we should look into their eating habits. People here say they're nurse sharks, nocturnal hunters who hang about in sluggish groups during the day, smoking weed and playing games online. They're not known for their interest in humans.
NOW HEAR THIS-NOW HEAR THIS-Nat'l G sez - "Nurse sharks are slow-moving bottom-dwellers and are, for the most part, harmless to humans. However, they can be huge—up to 14 feet (4.3 meters)—and have very strong jaws filled with thousands of tiny, serrated teeth, and will bite defensively if stepped on or bothered by divers who assume they’re docile."
ReplyDeleteNurse sharks sound like they would make excellent volunteers at the needle exchange!
