I just saw it on Animal Planet.. I think they were out diving in Florida Keys. But that aside, it was a segment showing the Barracuda as a very fast swimmer, and a dangerous hunter. The guiding diver actually got bit from feeding the barracuda.
Okay, so that's TV. I was just surprised to see the barracudas being portrayed that way. I'm a local Miami diver and I see barracudas big and small, all the time, and they're very calm and gentle. As far as I've seen anyway.. I've never seen them make sudden movements, or show any sign of aggression.
Well, I'm no scientist, but it just seems awkward that barracudas would be portrayed as something harmful. Should I be watching out for them? Or is it just bogus TV like always?
