Meanwhile in Guadalupe Island Mexico... The biggest Great White Shark ever seen!!!

  • 9 years ago
A Mexican aquatic researcher named Mauricio Hoyos, is filmed in a video and that a huge shark seen female white swim around him in deep waters around the island of Guadalupe, located 141 kilometers off the coast of the peninsula Baja California.

Hoyos Padilla and his team christened the huge animal over 6 meters long as "Deep Blue" because she was pregnant and was the biggest they had ever encountered, so believe it could be the world's largest .

The shark had scars on his body, possibly for a showdown with another shark mating or marks. Also, it is believed to have about 50 years of age.

In the recording, which sponsored the US channel Discovery Channel you can see the bold diver, leaving their protective cage to touch the huge shark, who seemed to return the greeting in a flap.

"The largest great white shark ever seen in front of the cages on the island of Guadeloupe .... DEEP BLUE !!! "Padilla wrote in his profile for the network.

The visit of "Deep Blue" to the waters near the island of Guadalupe, probably has to do with its large population of elephant seals, of which the sharks feed.

Although this shark is really huge, it is not the largest that any human being is seen, since in 1948, one of six anglers caught 6.4 meters in the Gulf of Mexico.

In 2013, a great white estimated to have measured more than 7m also attacked a woman out of Maui - from bites, the doctor said the shark must have measured about 25 feet, but this could not be verified.
