      @@jnielsen90 "in it's own environment" I've heard that before and it is usually said by people that do not understand definition of "apex predator". Here is dictionary definition of apex predator "a predator at the top of a food chain that is not preyed upon by any other animal" Basically apex predator is a top predator that doesn't have predators of its own. So by that definition sharks can't be apex predators since they have natural predator.....dolphins, orcas more precisely. By that definition even polar bears and Leopard seals can't be apex predators...for obvious reasons....

    Hammerheads were the first shark I was familiar with. As a 6 yr old, an uncle and aunt took me to Galveston Beach. We were walking and I saw something on the beach and started working my legs to get there to see it. Turned out to be a juvenile hammerhead. My uncle, a former linebacker for Texas A&M, caught up to me and wouldn't let me touch it. I was pretty sure it was dead, but they weren't changing their mind. Pooh!

    I enjoy watching documentaries about sharks, and am glad that there are dedicated conservationists out there who are trying to save them. One of the statements that was said in this documentary that really got my attention was that if all sharks went extinct, the ocean would become a pitre dish of diseases because there are no sharks to eat dying or dead marine animals. If this isn’t enough for the general public to see how important sharks are to the ecosystem then I don’t know what is!
    Of all the species of sharks, I think Tiger Sharks are my favorite to learn about.
    But I would be too afraid to be in the ocean with sharks, especially big ones, they would definitely sense my fear! I really have to give those professional divers who swim with these animals some major credit!

You didn't need to prove my point, but thanks anyway
      An injured Orca attacked and killed by a Great White Shark must mean that the Orca is no longer an apex predator anymore too then as it was preyed on by a Shark. Contrary to what you believe a Great White Shark has no natural predator...Orcas occasionally eat them when the opportunity presents itself but it isn't something they naturally target and prey on. So the GreatWhite is an apex predator as well. Every predator in the Ocean has at one point been preyed on by another species so by youre so literal a definition nothing is an apex predator as they have all been prey of something else at some point.....thats why it is worded "natural" predator. Its very easy to understand so not sure why you are having so much trouble getting it

    2:14:00 okay so as this guy is saying this.- that we have to figure out how to "allow" eco tourism to be able to continue but not hurt the whale shark population or affect the sharks natural feeding and mating areas. They had to wait (the scientists) had to wait until AFTER the tourist boats were done getting their moneys worth before the scientists could come in and do their work... That right there doesn't make sense they allow the money driven boats to bother and come close to the sharks before they let the scientists close to them sharks to do the work needed to help keep the species alive.... it's all about the money as always they could care less about the animals

    'Sharks - The Ocean's Apex Predators' Are you sure that that is the right title. It may be alarmist and so correct. Or the people behind the video may be weak and so see a shark as at the 'Apex'. If it was correct! Does that them make the USA Marine Cor an inferior? Along with The USA senate and President. Just how high can those sharks jump if a USA helicopter gun ship is seconary? If sharks were at the Apex as The Apex Predator then the suggestion would be needed to stay off the beaches near the water's edge.
