Episode Details

Bull sharks, known for their aggressive nature, are revealed to be social creatures in a new study. Researchers tracked 184 bull sharks over six years, observing complex behaviors like lead-follow swimming and parallel movement. Adults, especially those of similar size, formed strong social bonds, often favoring female company. Younger sharks kept their distance for safety, while older ones seemed less reliant on socializing. The study challenges the old view of sharks as solitary hunters, opening up new questions about their hunting strategies and mating behaviors.
