Are those the lemon sharks we saw last February (only we didn't seen them en masse like that)?

Spinner Sharks, Carcharhinus brevipinna at MarineBio.org

Black tips... or locally they are called spinner sharks by people, I think.

That's amazing!

 

[shortdivemedic]

So nice to see that for sure

 

[dimac]

is that an annual congregation or something?

 

[Garrobo]

So much for a shortage of sharks.

 

[Wookie]

They may be spinner sharks, but usually they exhibit the bahavior of jumping out of the water and spinning. Hence, the name. Spinners are not the same animal as Blacktips.

I heard of Spinner Dolphins, but not spinner sharks.

Great to see!
