- Game Warden Captain Chris Dowdy told KRGV four people were injured in shark attacks on Thursday at South Padre Island. They believe the attacks were connected to one shark.
Little know fact that shark attacks are very rare if you stay the hell out of the water.
Lame. Go touch grass...
Hey I watch scifi movie channel... attacks on land are very common. 😂😂😂
What a sad existence. Afraid of the world. Go touch grass.
How are sharks attacking people on land wtf are you talking about 😂
@@nosferatu3475 scifi movies... Sharknado and such...😂😂😂😂
I for one am glad that the shark was able to swim back to the open ocean.
You mean the open Gulf?
I am also relieved the shark was able to get back to open water. Sounds like a juvenile shark.
@@MissaPalityno, it was a very large bull shark. Haven’t you seen the footage from the beach and helicopter?
So weird when people value sharks more than their fellow humans. lol
@@beckoninglight16 So weird for the shark that lives in the ocean?
I'm so encouraged that there's an expert on sharks to tell us that movement and blood can spark an attack.
@@thelmaavila3685 l agree! There’s an eyeroll 🙄emoji in case you should require it in the future. Ive found in this world there is much need of it! 😂
🤣 And just think it took him at least four years of college to share this depth of wisdom to share with us little people. Thank you sir. May we have another?
We're gonna need a bigger boat.....
Yep Jaws 🦈
They could use drones to monitor beaches but it seems like tech isn't always used where it could be.
Shark was just looking for his ballot drop box.....🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈
Sharks gotta eat.
Why kill a shark for being a shark.
Why blame humans for doing what humans do then?
Good question. He could be rehabilitated.
@@DonaldWheelis-xb1lu Based on that - People love to swim in the ocean. Why should they have to die or be mangled for it?! Everyone always talks about how smart animals are, and yet, there seems no way to reason with them! 😂 (this is sarcasm by the way). I actually think ppl shouldn’t swim in the ocean at all. Youre just making yourself an offering.
They didn’t kill it they worked it back to open waters where it belongs..
@Bob31415 shame on you, how do you know it identifies as a shark, maybe he thinks he's a flamingo
this is why i don't go swimming 💀
Right! I don't have to worry about that when I go to a pool...
@@Martin-Young yeah💀 i rather swim in a pool or my tub 💀💀
I spent a lot of time in the ocean and on beaches. Never got bit, even when swimming with the sharks. If they can see that you are human, they don't want a bite (unless they are starving).
Swim in my pool with a kinky fish😂😂😂
This is why you will never live a full life.
Sharks are attacking from east coast Florida all the way up to Long Island and Gulf of Florida- 4 in one day last week. The real problem is the Gulf and Atlantic are at record heat. In hot ocean water sharks use more energy, metabolism spikes and they need to eat more food. At the same time less food is available - so they are more likely to turn to alternative sources of 'protein'.
Shark was up for a human taco
This is just like a scene from “Jaws”! Yikes!
Sharks will go right to where the eye of a hurricane is going to strike
I have spent a fair amount of times fishing along the coast of NC . Mostly surf fishing but some pier fishing . You can see a lot of critters down in the water , standing on the pier , which you can't see from the beach . My point . Drum roll . Vacationers for some reason feel safe if they are swimming near a pier . Big mistake especially if fishermen are on the pier throwing chum in the water to attract fish . Sometimes the oil slick from the chum attract really big fish with teeth . I have heard of people being Vacationers will sometimes sit under the pier to get out of the sun , then run out and jump in the ocean . Sounds good .
You're in their world. You choose that as soon as you go in. You're on the dinner plate, that's your own fault
They are on my dinner plate.
What kinda shark is doing the attacking? I assume bull shark or tiger?
Pool sharks
Bull shark
People in the water, sharks in the water, easy-peasy.
Bull sharks, tiger sharks, and great white sharks are all known to be maneaters.
Why in the world did they not cull that shark??
Because people are stupid. We are long overdue for handing out some white shark tags on the west coast. Sharks are cool, amazing animals that are vital to our ecosystem. The fact is we now have apex predators with no predators that are rapidly becoming out of control. Tree huggers have no clue about wildlife management or conversations with fact and reason.
getting the shark? cornering the shark? why, lol
So it can swim back to the Open Gulf, goofy
@@user-id1mx9ze8f hahaha!!
If the water taste salty then there are sharks around.
We are invading their home.
Beaches are our homes, too. They can stay deeper.
@@RevToxyou’re stupid
laughing at using the expensive helicopter instead of sending up drones...they like to fleece taxpayers money
WHY???? Because of Trump, Of Course! SMH.
I thought the gulf had hardly no fish?
Dudes I used to live in that ocean. Dang. They are top of the line PREDATORS. That's why they do it.
And ... man's fascination of chumming shark's so they can swim with the sharks, and the ones do 'research' on them .. sharks will equate humans with food ...
soooo u tellin me if i was a shark i could get away from bitin people 😭😭
Stop the beach fishing. It's dangerous to try to draw one kind of fish to your lure and assume you won't draw another. Find a pier! Bigger sharks are smelling the bait. Make it illegal to fish from the beach
Lmfaoooo yeah make it illegal to fish on the beach, do you people even understand how stupid you are?!?! 😂😂😂🤡🤡🤡
Dont swim in a sharks territory and you won't get bit, but no no no let's make fishing illegal you fish brained idiot 😂😂😂
Only been in the ocean once. It was at Padre Island back in the 70’s. The water was cold and murky. Got in up to my waist with my siblings, got the creeps, not an enjoyable experience at all. I got out after a few minutes. So did everyone else. There was a huge pier right next to where we went in. We all went walking on the pier, which had little kiosks, shells, hats, etc. When we got to the end there were several men cutting up whole tuna fish and putting huge pieces on hooks and throwing it into the water on ropes. My brother asked what they were fishing for and they said sharks. A big meat hook, meat and long ropes. None of us went back in the water while there. Ive never been back in the ocean.
Hey, the shark just wants a good meal like everyone else to celebrate the 4th!
This is why snorkeling and scuba are safer than surfing. When the surf is rough, the water is cloudy and sharks can’t see you clearly, so they bite to learn more. If they see a human clearly, they aren’t interested.
Chief Brody , you knew sharks were out there yet you let my ppl go out there , slap 👋 greatest shark movie ever made quote “Jaws” 🦈
Let the shark be
We make such a big deal out of this😂 yeah sharks live in the ocean people it's their home stay out of their home
It's clearly starship's fault.
This means if you’re on your period don’t get in
Sharks are figuring out people equals food.
Maybe was sensing the oncoming hurricane.
Was it planning on moving ashore for the time being?🧐🤨🤡
@@buzz5969 Sharknado.🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈
News @9 Attack Victims intend to sue the City, the Beach Guards & the Shark + Accomplices in the attack hahaha
I'm sure they'll blame Trump
Stop liein 😂 their lookng for food. Easier to just take a good bite of something meaty.
As he said, “looking for food”… Interesting point many are not acknowledging is that much of wildlife, even coyotes in Yellowstone (just last year or so) are now making attempts on or at least relying more on humans for food.
The ecosystem is being challenged severely. If anyone is interested, much of my content is wildlife related and I was in this area just one week before commenting on the lack of natural food in videos documenting even the birds acting a little different as of late due to shortages.
Takes a bite and don't like it and moves on lol. That's funnier than our political situation.
I was there 2 months ago😨
I still haven't heard what kind of shark it was. The DPS helicopter had a cam on it. It looked like a bull shark.
For certain it wasnt a White Pointer, be lucky for the fact they dont go to those waters.
@@buzz5969 I know, right? I'm not sure a great white would come in so close to the shoreline anyway, but I suppose if a tasty seal were in the shallows it'd try.....
There was a Great white shark spotted off Alabama coast in May of this year. Rare for sure.
said Bull
The Sharks were just looking for the Border😂
More fear porn.
I think it's too hot for the sharks
Good I’m always there on the little water cause I know this could happen some day
Wow you mean too tell me that sharks live in the ocean I hope the sharks are ok
Helicopter over the water looking for the sharks, JAWS!!! 🐬🐬🐬..... Love that movie!!! 🎬 🎬 🎬......
Lets use sharks for pet food pls
Takes a bite doesn’t like it he moves on…Man ! nobody likes Humans!!!😭😭😭
Tuna tastes better
Oceanic storms (ie: Hurricane Beryl) are KNOWN to cause an increase in shark attacks; murky waters, bait fish moving closer to shoreline, temperature fluctuations, ... All in addition to an huge increase in water activity from massive crowds of people, celebrating. SHARK LIVES MATTER 😁🦈💙
Seems they would be smart enough to go deep to avoid the storm but who knows maybe they wanted to come ashore and get into some concrete hotel rooms to ride the storm out.🤡🤨🧐🥸
They are losing their fear to humans, combined with lack of food deep inside the ocean.
shark attacks are already rare enough, but when they happen they're memorable.
@@forexed8948 very true. However visits are more frequent now. Here in South Florida we have shark watching in beaches almost every day. Unfortunately, it's become a popular tourist attraction to dive and feed them with your hands, so they not only have lost their instinctive fear to humans but are learning that noise, engines, and that strange "smell" usually means easy food. They live an average of 20 years, so plenty of time to adapt their taste.
Ummm...NOPE. Sharks are not like bears, they are not losing a fear of humans or anything else, for that matter. lol 😜The oceanic waters are being stirred up more from an increase in tropical storms, bait fish are moving closer to shorelines for the food they eat, water temps are changing, ...THOSE are the kinds of reasoning behind an increase in shark attacks. ;)
@@heatherstewart9300 Those are good points, however, if you look at the number of attacks from 2023, you may be more inclined to blame human fault. The numbers are increasing drastically.
@@heatherstewart9300 what I am telling you is based on last scientific studies and research about changes in their behavioral patterns. I have been working 15 years in the marine industry and oceanic studies but, of course, maybe you can teach me something 😂😂
Ummmm ur audio
Sounds like florida
East Coast is all the same
Stop beach fishing.
Tastes like McDonald’s blubber
As a texas shark fisherman yall crazy as hell thinking its safe to swim in Texas. Sharks are everywhere on the coast, even in the creeks. Lmao Especially in the creeks that are connected to the ocean
Ive heard they take UBERs to get to the creeks that arent connected to the ocean .
I’ve never seen a shark near SPI many years of same beaches and whale watching and stuff. Do you think they act different before hurricanes
Jaws 😮
That's a Poor Man's Helicopter Need Coat Guard Helicopter Catche SHARK 🦈
He wanted a taste of freedom 😂
Cocaine Shark 😮
Get em sharks.
Vote Trump for no tax on tips and freedom of speech + no more wars
Yeah right.. vote for TrumPutin is what you mean.. Trump is a GROSS man who wants to sleep with his daughter and was a big Epstein client. He will bring less freedom and more tax cuts for the very wealthy. His actions would ultimately negatively impact the security of the USA and the western world as he loves Putin and Kim Jong. He will support Project 2025 which is an assault to the freedoms of many and unconstitutional. TrumPutin will wreck the economy. Let's not kid ourselves.. inflation comes from corporate greed. So.. Vote blue!! Anyone but TrumPutin and the QOP!!!
We were literally in an active war throughout Trump’s presidency in Afghanistan, which Biden ended. We have freedom of speech. Trump had a chance to reduce taxes for the working class, but only offered a temporary tax cut for us. But he did permanently cut taxes for his billionaire buddies which the rest of us now have to figure out how to pay and increased our deficit by 25%, more than any president in our history. Nobody should be depending on tips for a livable wage. The wealthy used tips to pay ex-slaves something that wasn’t a full wage. If your employer can’t afford to pay their employees, they do not deserve you, and they have no business running a business if you are being exploited. Demand better from your employer and yourself. Be fearless. You can do it! That’s a huge pass on Trump. I’ll vote for people who defend the constitution. Anyway, this video is about the shark incidents.
Texans urge Alex Jones to please "Jump in, go swim." as the actor has caused critical flooding due to his tears." spokespersons [didnt] say.
This has never happened before all around the world they are this aggressive and so close to land leviathan has all marine life doing abnormal things
These are evil days, thats for sure!
Sharks are perpetually hungry. Never satisfied. Have to keep moving or they will die. Bad karma. A reaction to sinful activities in their previous lifetime as a human.

😂 the sharks won't bite crazy people... you're safe
In their previous lives they were Loan Sharks 🦈
