Was talking about this the other day, shark tourism operations don't always impact natural behaviours of sharks
Recent paper led by @gooden_adrienne using accelerometers to assess white shark activity in relation to wildlife tourism. No substantial changes in daily energy budget but small number of bait could could fuel a white shark for more than a day doi.org/10.1016/j.anbehav.20…

@ericclua est l’un des plus grands spécialistes de requins 🦈 au monde. Dans #provoquetachance, Éric nous parle du processus Schopenhauer, de comment se dégager du regard des autres pour attirer la CHANCE à soi, etc… Une rencontre hors norme. @AlbinMichel @EMLYON

New @nature – globally only 1/3 of #HighSeas shark #hotspots were free from #AIS tracked LL fishing effort -- fishing effort overlaps majority of hotspots - even lower spatial refuge of 13% & 20% in heavily fished IND Ocean & N ATL rdcu.be/cnVxM nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

In @nature today - Pelagic #shark hangouts w/ greater overlap w/ longline fishing effort have higher #fishing-induced mortality – spatial overlap a major driver of capture susceptibility - Thanks to colleagues for generating discussions #ScienceInAction nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Pelagic #shark fishing-exposure-risk hotspots overlap w/ shark density hotspots 56% globally & overlap w/ above-average effort 81% - huge, spatially extensive fishing effort on sharks @nature - Thanks colleagues for generating discussions #ScienceInAction rdcu.be/cnVxM

New @nature – Consistent patterns of #shark spatial overlap w/ fishing effort - using new #AIS fishing effort data does not alter mean monthly spatial overlap w/ sharks globally (19-29%) - Thanks to colleagues for generating discussions #ScienceInAction nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

French Polynesia is a great place to be a reef shark! @nffarabaugh and @ericclua led the @globalfinprint effort with @criobe_pf @jjkiszka @sharkpond8 Global results oand rebuilding options for reef sharks where they are in trouble is out! nature.com/articles/s41586-0… @VulcanInc

We were absolutely surrounded by fish and we had some of the most thrilling #whiteshark encounters. You’d wait and wait and wait and then finally the fish would move in all different directions and the face of this iconic predator would start to take shape. #sharks #sharkweek

POURQUOI LE #REQUIN MORD L'HOMME ? #Conférence à l'Ecole #vétérinaire de #Nantes sur le sujet... 70 min d'informations scientifiquement étayées pour mieux #comprendre les différents types de motivations et morsures des requins vimeo.com/396314316 #criobe by @ericclua
🦈La pêche à la palangre (lignes de pêche sur lesquelles sont accrochés des hameçons) menace le requin : "Un requin bleu aura des difficultés à se détacher des hameçons et mourra noyé ou empêchera le requin de se nourrir." @ericclua @EPHE_fr

Le #requin, c'est 420 millions d'années d'évolution. "Si on ramène la vie sur terre à une journée de 24h, l'Homme par rapport au requin est né il y a moins d'une minute." @ericclua @EPHE_fr et chercheur @criobe_pf spécialiste des #requins
