After watching the"camo sharks" episode, I'm calling BS on this. They are measuring color in various ambient light settings whether 30ft below the surface or at breach. Seems like the sharks aren't changing color but ambient light gives the perception of different colors related to the specific amount of light available in the various settings that they appear in. Unscientific opinion, but seems more probable than the color changing.

[@gilescharter4783]

Surely that is the whole point of having the colour board in every shot, so they can calibrate for ambient lighting? Or am I missing something?

[@bradsmalt3852]

@@gilescharter4783 my understanding is that they were saying the sharks are changing color based on their activity, getting darker in color as they breech and lighter as they descend. Thus the comment about ambient light being a greater factor in their perception of color.

[@SandraNelson063]

I wonder if the beautiful Deep Blue will show up? Hmmmmm....she's as long as the boat!

Such magnificent creatures, such a shame how so many are mislead to believe they are blood thirsty monsters…

Those animals you’re referring to as “fur seals” sure look like Sea Lions. I’d think someone National Geographic would know the difference.

Aryan came from outside and burnt Dravida history as Tamils scriptures and now history was wrong, truth is Tamil people are Dravidian Tamil language makes proof of it.
