I agree and am envious of them

I am a long time resident of Maui. I used to kayak solo at Olowalu. What these women do is amazing. I think the sharks come here for the same reason the humpback whales do: to mate. Keeping their species healthy would involve mating outside their normal neighborhood gene pool. The fact they are also at a buffet of whale meat, certainly doesn’t hurt. The whales don’t eat when they are here, since their meal of plankton is scarce in the warm waters. They feast up north.

The sharks? I don't blame them.....

Im a free diver, shark loving Australian and this was awesome to see.

There isn’t a mystery why there are more shark attacks in Maui. If you research the time of year when more attacks occur, you’ll find they coincide with the Humpback whale calving season. These sharks have been conditioned to come to the area where the most calves are born and enjoy free, non-combatant food in the form of whale “after birth”, which is highly nutritious and doesn’t fight back. There are also a large number of still born calves which also provide massive calories from November through April each year for hundreds and hundreds of years, possibly thousands of years. Another reason there are more attacks is that there are more tourist in the waters every year in Maui and they are not educated as to the dangers. Mating is a secondary causation of attacks. It’s about the free food. PS-The Tigers then move to the Northern atolls after whale season is over to eat the large supply of sea birds that hatch during the summer months. The cycle repeats every year. Simple logic.

Likely all true. Scientists still want to gather observable data if they can and if the sharks are breeding there while feeding it would be an interesting discovery. Even just the testing of a new and less invasive way to tag and track and gather behavioural information is neat.

Olowalu has always been a place where there were a alot of sharks. Locals know this. A woman was swimming with friends out there and she was killed, not sure if her body was found. Imagine how scary for her friends. That was 20 years ago. Every time I’d drive to Lahaina I’d remember.

@@tomboland64 I remember it well. Apparently, a group of Tiger’s were feeding on a dead baby Humpback Whale and this lady, who swam this area everyday in the morning, by herself, saw the commotion, swam over to check it out, and was brutally attacked and consumed. There are several very important lessons from this avoidable incident to be learned. First, never swim alone, especially in the early morning or sunset, early evening. Second, I personally never snorkel or swim unless I have at least 30-40 foot of visibility. Third, If you encounter a shark, any size any kind, keep your eyes on the shark while “slowly” swimming away, preferably on your back while never losing sight of the shark. DO NOT THRASH, PANIC or start YELLING. That’s like a dinner bell. Fourth, Stay calm, cool and collected but get away asap. Enjoy the ocean but remember, you are a visitor and you’re not in charge.

I would love to find out what is Paige’s PhD dissertation about. I am impressed that more research on sharks is being conducted in Hawaii. The stereotypical image of these ocean predators has advanced/changed considerably since the first Jaws movie was produced in the early 1970’s. I miss living in Hawaii. It is cold here in Colorado……

Thank you for sharing that was so much fun and mentally therapeutic.

They gather there during the winter because that’s the humpback whale nursery.

Maui has the highest number of Shark attacks on Humans ( of all the Hawaiian Islands). According to the Maui Department of Land & Natural Resources ( DLNR), in the last 30 years, there have been 59 Shark Attacks on Maui. This could correlate with the research in this video, or it could be other reasons like high numbers of visitors to Maui who also partake in Ocean- related activities?🤔

Ocean Ramsey works on getting hooks out of Tiger Sharks mouths. I think that one was Queen Nikki and she had a video of her attempts. There was one, I think Rosey that had a very badly damaged jaw. I THINK this was the same one in this video but the jaw is healing, that she attempted and failed on. I love that there are attempts to study without harming the sharks. The more we know, the safer we can keep them and humans in the water.

This was such a great video..thank you.

"she's rolling her eyes" HAHAH universal code hey. Even sharks do it

This is so amazing!

I remember when national geographic used to make professional documentary style videos. Now, it's like a show from the movie Idiocracy.

There is quite a bit of chumming going on to attract sharks. It all happens very close to shore and it is no wonder they associate food with humans. Perhaps some self-tagging device could be invented to obviate the need for all that feeding and chumming.

Seen it!

We’ve known why for A LONG TIME! Good God why don’t you actually talk to the locals.? You know what is across from Maui? Oh that’s right, it The island of Lanai! Where the seabirds breed, fledge their young… and many fall into the waters, bringing in the sharks (in the exact months that they see shark attacks increase on Maui!) The protection of the sea turtles and the movement of the sea turtles brings more sharks into…. Oh! Thats right … the waters between Maui and Lanai.

wow this is nice 😊😊
