In Southern California, beachgoers are never far from white sharks. With few bites and thousands of sightings, the threat these sharks pose continues to be questioned.

If you have ever wanted to swim with sharks, chances are you already have. Especially, if you frequent any southern California beaches.
SoCal beaches have become a hotbed for juvenile great white sharks in recent years. Since beaches have warmer water, there are plenty of stingrays, fish and squid to feed on and sharks remain safe from other predators, according to California State University at Long Beach’s Shark Lab.
Patrick Rex, a lab technician at CSULB Shark Lab set off with a drone to study how juvenile great white sharks behave while in close proximity to humans.
This study is the first of its kind that observed both humans and sharks at the same time, Rex shared with USA Today.

Duh….
The USA Today is a lying Leftist pushing rag. It’s been proven you’re nothing but propaganda and a mouthpiece for the Leftist Democrat agenda. FU.
🤦♂️
Too bad your live FEED doesn't take comments.. right now, you are so lucky…😊
This is you..
➡️Unfortunately, what many don't realize is that although "Sound of Freedom" is advertised as a “true story," that story is highly FICTIONALIZED..
I don't think so you're nothing more than that as a camp of the liberal sick Progressive Democrat who would love to get rid of God but will not be able to until you get rid of all of us who serve him… you're just an UNBELIEVER…one day YOU WILL stand in front of God, I and my brothers and sisters will witness you before God as well. you should retract your lying article about the SOUND FREEDOM because what you say is nothing but evil…
📢📢📢📢 newsflash!!! We have sharks 🦈 in the actual ocean 🤯
Stop pretending they won’t attack us. You’re getting people killed.
Ive never went in the ocean and thought "yup no sharks around, i definitely should let my guard down"

It’s the ocean, that is where they live and it is their domain and not ours. What is there to study? People are not the intended prey of these sharks, almost every single so called attack is a bite and nothing more. Unfortunately, one bite is often deadly to a human just because of the shear size and power of the shark.
They will mistake humans for seals or other actual prey as they hunt.
This has already been known for decades. Splashing in the water often mimics the sound of a distressed or injured potential meal to the radar of a shark. It’s kind of like shoot first and ask questions later in its nature.
This may be the first study to specifically use drones to film the behavior, but certainly not the first of its kind. 👋🙄
Sehr kreativer Ansatz!👄
