【视频】超难得画面！潜水员在夏威夷外海与大白鲨共游

本周二在夏威夷Oahu附近，一群潜水客意外与一只大白鲨意外相遇；海洋生物专家推测，这只六公尺长的大白鲨就是号称纪录上最大的鲨鱼「深蓝」（Deep Blue），是目前人类已知最大鲨鱼之一。

潜水客见到牠时，牠正在吃一头抹香鲸的尸体。

目击者Ocean Ramsey说，他们首先看到一群虎鲨，后来这只鲨鱼出现后，虎鲨们纷纷让开。Ramsey是一名鲨鱼研究员，她致力保护鲨鱼并是「无笼与鲨共游」活动的领队。

Ramsey说，这只目测约2.5吨、大约50岁的母大白鲨优雅又漂亮，而且显然把他们的船当成搔痒的工具。「我们日出时分就出发了，这只大白鲨几乎陪了我们一整天！」

I waited quietly, patiently, observing as she swam up to the dead sperm whale carcass and then slowly to me passing close enough I gently put my hand out to maintain a small space so her girth could pass. I know some people criticize touch but what some don’t realize is that sometimes sharks seek touch, she swam away escorted by two rough-toothed dolphins who danced around her over to one of my @oneoceandiving shark research vessels and proceeded to use it as a scratching post, passing up feeding for another need. I wish more people would have a connection with sharks and the natural world, because then they would understand that it’s not petting sharks or pushing them off to maintain a respectable space that is hurting sharks (because trust me if she didn’t like being pet she can handle and communicate 🦈) it’s the wasteful and cruel practice of grabbing and catching sharks to cut off their fins (which slowly kills them) for #sharkfinsoup in a process called #sharkfinning or the wasteful #sharkfishing or #sharksportfishing If it bothers you that I touched the shark please click on one of the hashtags above and leave them a negative comment first 😉 #HelpSaveSharks #SpreadAwareness #FinBanNow #bansharkfinning #Sharkfin Vid shot on my @gopro #gopro3000 #goproforacause out with @oneoceandiving with @juansharks ❤️ @mermaid_kayleigh 💙 @camgrantphotography ❤️ @forrest.in.focus 💙 @oneoceanresearch @oneoceanglobal @waterinspired @oneoceansharks @oneoceanhawaii @oneoceaneducation #savetheocean #sharktouch #touchingsharks #oneoceanteam #discoversharks #discoverocean #greatwhitesharkinhawaii #freedivingwithsharks #whitesharkhawaii #deadwhalehawaii #dolphinsandsharks #🤙🏽 #Hawaii #sharka 🤙🏽🦈

Deep Blue不但是纪录上全世界最大的鲨鱼，牠还有自己的推特！当然也有以牠为主角拍成的纪录片，几年前有人目睹牠出现在墨西哥附近的Guadalupe Island。

Ramsey近一步表示，夏威夷的海水对大白鲨来说通常太温暖了，因此这类鲨鱼往往出没于加州附近；但这只大白鲨看起来是怀孕了，牠想必是真的太饿，才会游到夏威夷附近觅食。

夏威夷政府呼吁潜水客远离鲸鱼尸体等，以免也成为鲨鱼捕食的目标；政府并呼吁，他们已发现有潜水客拔取死去鲸鱼的牙齿，这是触犯州法及联邦法律的行为，请大家不要这么做。
