Feels wrong to me to put predators in a tank like that.
Did a different big fish grab it right at the end?
Poor Stingray 🙁
Oh my gaaahhhd!
“Are you not entertained?!”
-Hammerhead, probably
I imagine they normally like to keep the sharks fed very well to prevent situations like this.
Wow it actually took a big circular bite out of it.
“This one’s for Steve!”
Stingray: This is fine
Do yourself a favor and mute the audio.
The children learned an important lesson about correctly stocking a community tank that day.
I once went to the Aquarium in Lisbon and they had little sharks in the enclosure with the sea otters. Man, those sea otters absolutely loved to fuck with those sharks… twirling them around like they were pretending to ballet dance with them. It was hilarious but I also felt bad for the sharks.
Seeing all the other sharks change course as soon as the blood began leaking out was so neat. Like a mini shark documentary on eating habits.
Hammerhead natural prey are stingrays. This is like housing the Lions and Gazells in the same exhibit.
This is adventure aquarium in Camden, NJ. Have been there a bunch of times.
Poor bastard
Who forgot to feed the hammerhead?
I was just at this aquarium on Saturday. I remember thinking to myself, “those stingrays definitely don’t seem safe.” I wonder how often this sort of thing happens.
This aquarium is fucking wild, in 2006 when I was there the hippos attempted a breakout and the whole place lost its mind. They used to let people inside the tank with them (for more money) and the hippos got aggressive, they pulled the people out and then they started going at the glass and they shuffled everyone outside.
Hammerheads eat stingrays in the wild, but in the wild the stingray isn’t confined to a relatively small space with its predator and then also stripped of its only defensive mechanic (stingrays in captivity get their stingers removed)
It’s like putting a gazelle and a cheetah in the same enclosure in the zoo…..
You’d have to keep the predators appetite so satiated at all times that it would never want to eat the prey it has easy access to, which is basically impossible.
Poor management there imo.
Steve Irwin’s still got shooters out here
Thank God they were thinking and shot this in landscape not portrait.
Hey, yeh Geoff, take a seat mate… Mm yeh look. We had a complaint from the IT department, they said you were looking at something fishy and… Well look, I will keep this between you and I, but the work place isn’t the time and place for it. I understand we all make mistakes but when you actively film a fight between staff members and then share it online… Well… We just can’t have that. I can’t let you off the hook this time mate. Pack your stuff and leave.
Wow, this was surprisingly upsetting.
Just in case anyone needed the subtitles for this..
“OHH MY GOD”
“OHH MY GOD”
“OHH MY GOD”
“OHH MY GOD”
“he’s eating th..”
“OHH MY GOD”
This made me sad 🙁
