- Residents off the south shore of Nova Scotia witnessed multiple white sharks feasting on a humpback whale carcass. Video footage captured sharks attacking the dead whale, providing a rare glimpse of these majestic creatures in action.
Local fisherman Bill Vienneau, who ventured out to witness the spectacle for himself, described the scene as "impressive to watch" as the sharks converged on the whale carcass. Vienneau estimated the largest shark to be roughly 14 feet in length, nearly the size of his own boat.
As these sharks are classified as an endangered species in Canada, the presence of the white sharks in local waters and their ability to find nutritional food sources has been noted as a positive sign by experts.

#GlobalNews #whiteshark #Carcass
A whale carcass is very important for adult GWS. Females aren't ready to mate until they are over 15 ft long. Close to the 20 ft mark. And the males don't dare approach them until the females are in a deep food coma. How does the food coma happen? When the females find a whale carcass. The younger, smaller sharks know to pull away, and allow the adult ( almost 20 ft!) females have access.
Wow thanks 😊
Nature doing exactly what it is supposed to do! Everything on earth becomes food sooner or later!
Leave these creatures alone.
I was so excited to click this only to get no more than a few seconds of vertical footage🤦♂
Great White Sharks are not endangered. They are on the vulnerable list! Get your facts right!!
Lighten up Francis...
I don't think sharks follow the reports 😂 but .....
“He estimated the largest to be approximately 14 feet. Nearly the length of his boat” 😂
Which part do you think the news edit team added to this story to spice it up a bit ? 😂
Ya his boat is definitely a lot more than 14 feet
"Great Wide sharks, Julian! The news says they're all over the harbor."
"Rick...what the hell are you talking about?!"
Yum YUM. There's a little McDonald's in everyone.
I actually saw a blue shark in the video
The sharks at 0:44 and 1:52 are white sharks. A blue shark has an elongated Caudal fin (upper tail fin). The white shark's tail fin is more symmetrical.
That was a blue shark that swam beneath the boat at 0:45, so its great whites and blues?
Environmental Hysteria doesn't care about your facts
No, that was a great white. Blue sharks have thinner more stream lined features.
@@chriskitchen4772No white under its snout and I've been within 10 feet of blues when diving, so that's how I know that's a blue.
That's very clearly a white shark, blue sharks are way more stream line and they have massive eyes.
Also white sharks have more symmetrical caudal fins than blue sharks as seen in this video. And both white and blue sharks have white under their snout.
JFC Meme ... Who's the whale?
This guy is related to Randy
Randy Bubandy?
@@robhasenwinkle Bubandy indeed
Declaring something "Endangered" because it is Naturally Rare in certain areas is Deceptive
Yes indeed
They are endangered in Canada, vulnerable worldwide, critically endangered in Europe

Is there somewhere in the ocean we can throw money into and save these sharks? It's supposed to work that way with the climate tax....
LOL Don't give them any ideas!
Blue sharks been here for a very long time . Caught a few on hand reels out in bay of funday around berwick yrs ago.

A perfect metaphor for Nova Scotia; they eat their own!
white shark are not endangered at all
Yes, they are.
@@ExtremeMadnessX😂 not even close to being endangered. They're featured the most on shark week every year because there's such a lack of them right?!?! Lmao
White sharks are not endangered.
If you think a Great White shark is rare go down to South Africa or Australia and there is millions of them . People get eaten regularly .
Shark attacks even there are very rare. Globally only a couple people per year get killed by sharks
@@JuanValentino-yu1ft We've got lots of them in coastal waters here on PEI, plus blue sharks that come right up rivers. Swimming in August when I was younger, we'd watch blues cruise by, following mackerel schools and the odd time you'd see the big fin of a great white out in Charlottetown harbour. That's when you get out of the water. Blues won't bother you, but I'd not trust a great white.
Yeah they’re not endangered at all anymore just more click bait. White sharks are overpopulating if anything at this point
@@DeeSmith001 I guess PEI is Prince Edward Island , the birthplace of Canada .
Great Whites like cooler waters for sure .
We have bull sharks in estuaries , they are small but can be nasty but I have seen Grey Nurse sharks and Hammerheads also . In the larger saltwater lakes we also get the occasional small Great White shark .
Just lost a guy in the lake not far from where I live when the small boat got overturned at night . 3 made it to shore one disappeared . We don't know what really happened . Great Whites have been known to overturn small boats . 4 young guys so they may have been drunk or doing something stupid . Tragic loss .
Lol people do not get eaten regularly.
Love how it's a "whale" talking about seeing the whale.
Rude.
White sharks aren't endangered.
They’re not even close to being endangered, they’re becoming prolific
Ban sharks! Ban whales! Ban boats! Ban the ocean! Feel better now....Sometimes idiocy helps...
Let's blame the climate change 😅
Yep whale dies, sharks eat whale…lame stream..climate change..🤷♂️😄
They’re not so endangered
Yuck
Do we need these sharks in oceans.
That eats humans🙄🙏🏻
Yes we do.
Yes we just need a lot less humans.
No, they aren't needed.
@@stevev6002 Neither are humans.
@stevev6002 yes they absolutely are needed. They're vital for the ocean.
