Being a researcher and
explorer of a Great White Shark is an extremely job as the people unfamiliar
with these majestic creatures need to come in close proximity in order to learn
more.

These marine animals
are studied thoroughly and every aspect of their behaviour is mapped out and
taken note of religiously which allows us to reach definitive conclusions. The
knowledge and insight gained from these studies proves to be invaluable in
order to understand the world of animals.

While the awe-inspiring sights are very inspiring and the job is always risky. The
researchers are always at risk of getting bitten and the job is not for those
who have a brittle heart.

The researchers released an impressive footage
which shows the sharks battling it out in an aggressive manner in the vast blue
ocean. They can be seen biting bits of each other’s bodies off in a savagely
manner, a scenario that would have been impossible to capture some time ago.

Videos and images can only be captured with
a coordinated effort between photographers and sea experts. The footage was
made popular by a 2019 National Geographic documentary titled ‘Cannibal Sharks’.

Another incredible video claims to show
the world’s most battered shark. It was captured near the Neptune Islands in
South Australia. The region is home to more than 1,000 great white sharks.

The male shark’s long scars are visible
all over his body and he is believed to have been injured in an encounter with
either boat propellers or tuna fish. However, the cause cannot be confirmed
without an in-depth analysis.

Dean Spraakman, an Underwater cinematographer
told The Sun, “You can
only speculate what happened there and to be honest no one knows or ever really
know what causes that sort of damage to a shark but the poor guy had a bit of a
hard time I think,”

He added, “I
noticed he had scars on him but I didn’t realise to what length until I
reviewed the footage later. He was very calm and coming close and quite curious
which was great,”
