I remember reading about a female Great White that was kept in an aquarium, & she kept bumping into a certain area of the tank. They finally had to let her go, & afterwards, they realized the area of the tank that she kept bumping was rusting, which caused a small electromagnetic field, which was what attracted the Great White. Amazing & very sensitive creature!
Ohh yeah, I remember hearing about that!! Great white sharks are very sensitive to electrical fields. I saw a program about sharks using electromagnetic fields to guide them where they need to go, but human interferance with boats and radar systems kept interrupting them and confusing them...

I can absolutely confirm that yes, Betty, the Great White in the Monterey Bay Aquarium did infact eat other sharks. She was known to be aggressive after eating 2 of the Rays, and a Black-tipped Reef, over night. During a field trip with the Live Oak Elementary School in I believe 5th grade(memory is hazy), the Large Exibit Tank was closed because she had decided that a specific Tuna was going to be her meal that day. Then as an adolescent come 7th Grade, with Shoreline Middle, she was ACTIVELY stalking another shark. The workers had to ask other guests to leave the area incase she made a move to attack.
Yikes, that’s insane! Glad they let that shark go.
They close the exhibit every time the shark gets hungry?
I don't know if this math works(not to be disrespectful) but it said 198 days. I don't think you'd normally move between 5th and 7th grade in that amount of time
@@jamescasson9483 please re-read my og post, memory of exactly when I first saw Betty was very hazy, I'm 30 now. Memories from my younger childhood are turning hazy as all hell. I honestly only remember the things that stood out, like; Bestfriend/Brother slipping off monkeybars, red-rubber-death in the four square game, ball to the balls in dodgeball, BIG ass shark stalking other shark, 4th grade sucked, Big shark no longer there it's a smaller one now, 7th grade sucks but music class is cool.
That sort of stuff... I might have been in 5th grade still, not 100% sure. Been I dunno, 20+ years...

Due to their size and aggressive disposition, great white sharks are incredibly hard to handle - most people would rather not go through the hassle and dangers of coming into contact with them, especially as keeping them content and alive in captivity is so difficult.

@@pm2886 The Greenland Shark is my favorite example of extreme aquatic life expectancy. 400-500 years old!
Great white sharks are coastal-pelagic species, and they rarely change direction in the wild, unless they spotted something worth hunting.
In an aquarium they found that they would just swim into walls continuously because it's against their instincts to swim around in circles unlike most aquarium fish which don't migrate or travel nearly as much.

-The Great White that survived 198 days probably

Technically not considering the one lived for 198 days in captivity or w/e and was released. The one that lived only 3 days must have been some terrible conditions in comparison to the other one.
@@paparat8269 JYeah, definitely. Japan did not do that shark any good...😔🦈🇯🇵💀
@@paparat8269 They might have success with a very young one that could be acclimatised.
If they want to study it.
@@paparat8269 I believe the circumstances were very different. The Montary Aquarium built the tank in question specifically for a white shark, had all sort of scientist and veterinarians on call and also constantly monitoring the shark. Like the short said, it became a matter of the resources needed to keep the shark alive just being monumental. They kept it alive in captivity, but it was a constant battle, and one they eventually realized they couldn't win (not without the aquarium and research teams going belly up themselves, as it were).
Japan was a very different circumstance. The great white in question had been entangled in fishing nets and brought to the aquarium under questionable circumstances (while the best solution, failing any injuries that were not reported in the press as far as I recall, would have been to release the animal, taking it to the aquarium is still better than having slaughtered the shark there and then. This was back a while ago, but I don't remember a lot of English news covering much beyond the controversy of the exhibit and it's death, so there might have very well been injuries caused by the fishing nets). It was said to have only been kept three days, but really I believe it was closer to four or even five if you count the day of it's capture, it's original placement in their tanks, and the team declaring that it appeared to be doing well. It was only on the day right before it's death that it took a distract downfall. It's lt hard to imagine why. The stress of being captured, transported, and placed into a tank which must have felt very unlike it's ocean home would have surely taken its toll. Because it was an unexpected addition, this shark did not have its own specifically designed tank (though the day prior to it's death they did move it to a special oxygen rich tank to try and save it) or a team of specialist constantly surrounding it. It's death is very much in line with past white sharks that have been taken in by aquariums that lack special preparations and lots and lots of resources devoted just to keeping a single shark alive for a few months, maybe. These animals really do seem to suffer from not having large expanses of water.
It's like someone trying to keep a sperm whale in captivity. Consider the depths those animals swim every day just to eat; that's what their biology has become adapted to. Take that away, and you can throw all the dead squid into the tank you want, the whale is going to suffer. There is a LOT we don't know about Great Whites, but we DO know they've been known to migrate huge distances, and they often cover expansive areas in just a day. They are curious, inquisitive animals use to swimming large distance, of course they're not going to do well when you put them in a tank.
@Lubin1337 they actually cut its fins off for soup then threw it back in the ocean
If you don't release me, I'm going to have to eat every f*cking shark in this room.

You are a talker, lisen to talkers makes me thirsty
I got to see that great white at the Monterey Bay aquarium multiple times when I was a little kid. My mom would take me and my brothers often during days when everyone is at school or work so the aquarium is almost empty of people. It immediately was my favorite animal to see there and made me really get into sharks as a kid. It was most definitely the greatest thing I have seen in an aquarium, not just because of it itself but in that tank they kept stingrays and hammerhead sharks which I also loved. The first time I visited after it was gone the tank felt empty, even though it was full of sharks, rays, etc. It was weird not seeing that shark, the species that had the infamous reputation as a man eater.
Sharks are very intelligent. He knew the long, lonely life he had ahead of him and decided not to stay.
I think its because they get sensory overload. They have some of THE best senses on the planet and are meant to be using those out in the open ocean. They are constantly sending out various types of signals that are meant to travel great distances before returning to the Shark. It's like shouting out in the open vs shouting in a metal air duct. The signals come back too fast and too often and overloads the Sharks stimuli and causes major health issues.
That’s the best explanation I have ever heard.
So sharks use echolocation???
That's new ....

I actually visited the Monterey Bay Aquarium in 2006 and they had the very juvenile Great White in the big tank.
But it wasn't designed specifically for great whites and it sure as hell didn't eat other sharks.
I can't comment on why it was released, be it that it was rehabilitated or sick.
It looked very healthy when I was there and it spent most of the time at the top of the tank.
It’s actually fascinating they’re one of the few animals to react this way to captivity.
shows that they are actually independent thinkers
Eventually humans will realize that not everything nature makes is ours. Some animals need a lot more than we could ever give them.
nothing in nature belongs to us. Not even our own children. But we all come to this world free, and free we are to do as we wish. That includes swimming and hunting small fish, but also ruling over everything you see, including other animals. We are all part of nature and everything we do is, therefore, natural.
Well said!
Damn...profound

@@lesterism facts
It’s same with most sharks, the only ones ur going to see at a aquarium are black top, white tip, nurse, and possibly lemon. Most of those guys aren’t hostile and get along well if there’s a big enough tank
Whenever I think of a Great White in captivity I always end up thinking about Jaws 3
That was part of the plot for Jaws 3. A massive aquarium/research resort captured a large Great white that they thought was attacking people and tried keeping it in captivity to study it. It ended up dying but in reality it was the offspring of an even *bigger* Great white that started actively attacking the resort out of revenge for them kidnapping it's offspring.
Also, in the old Jaws video game where you play as the shark there's a mission where the locals capture you after finishing a wild people eating spree and place you in a similar resort on the ocean. Your goal is to bust out of the habitat, kill their prized orca in a Boss battle out of pure spite, then escape back into the ocean to eat more people.
You talkin' about some shark's MOTHER??
"out of pure spite" and not because it's a video game. I'm gonna start using that as a reason for doing optional boss fights lol

Let's be real here and tell the truth. The shark that was kept at the Monteray park was released because it was dying too, not because it was eating other sharks. It might have been doing that, but that wasn't why they released it. They were forced to. Peta and some other animal humanitarian went after them for having this shark. It was dying (it was in super bad shape when released and may have died anyway they suspect) and they didn't want the bad press of killing one of these sharks. They shouldn't have been even trying. Dozens of these sharks had died prior to this, while being kept in captivity for only a short time. This shark was the longest surviving in captivity, but that shark paid a great price for what we did. These animals don't deserve to die just so we can look at them. Shame on us.
this isn't the truth..sorry im going to believe the video over a random
@@mellissamercado7904 no, she's right. Great whites have without fail died or declined dramatically in captivity and it's a real disgrace that the Monterey Bay Aquarium tried to keep one when they knew very well it would probably not end well.

@@Popcorn-ch7uy Not so much Okinawa but Japan. When it comes to ecology and wildlife preservation, Japan is garbage.
Ignoring the fact that they still allow whaling, they drove their entire native otter population to extinction because they carelessly started building dams and infrastructure in an effort to modernize. They also recently passed a bill allowing the dumping of toxic waste into the ocean so long as it wasn't extremely detrimental to people. Not to mention they nearly drove animals on mainland Asia to near extinction by overhunting them back in WW2. Also overfishing tuna to such a degree that the pacific bluefin is either not allowed to be caught by certain countries or can only be caught on certain seasons and with a limit of 2.
Also Japan loves to present itself to the world as a tourist destination and tbh they care very little about how they draw people in. I'm pretty confident the only reason they even tried keeping a great white in captivity despite knowing it wasn't possible was to draw in tourists for the few days it would be alive.

@@Gildedmuse that may be the case but it is a lot harder to study them in nature as they can travel thousands of miles and also it is easier for people to be more accepting of an animal if they can see it themselves.

It really seems cruel in comparison. 😔
Great white sharks: I don’t listen to “the Mans’” rules!
Feel like this is true for deep ocean Sharks like blue sharks, great white, etc. The ones that do well in aquariums are the kinds that live near shore in reef eco systems.
GWS have an intricate body chemistry that has not really been studied. For instance, they can maintain a body temperature of 75F in 45F water without any insulative body fat, hair, or skin. Also, they have three eyelids, one of which allows them to see clearly when their head is out of the water. Yes, when they are standing on their tail and looking at you, they ARE looking at you! Having seen said GWS in the Monterey Aquarium, it had significant damage to its nose and could not easily navigate the tank. Essentially, you need what is called a donut tank with powerful jets of water to create a current in one direction. Rectilinear tanks do not work. Lastly, Big Blue, an ginormous female, does recognize human divers and even gives them rides (at least when she appeared in Hawaii), I think they are pretty damn smart.
For all those who say that it is not right to keep animals in captivity, right now it is the best way to avoid their extinction. Of course they would be better off in the wild but as long as there are humans destroying their habitat and hunting them there is no other choice. And if it bothers you that zoos make economic profit, I would like you to tell me how much money you have donated to associations concerned about the environment and you will see that it is also necessary for zoos to earn money.
Great points. A lot of people who make a huge deal out of it on the internet are all talk and no action. As seen from the comment section of this video. Jeez people are going ham lol

I saw the White shark in Monterey. It was a juvenile. I am glad they released it before it died.
My opinion is its because they've been seen sleeping as they fall at an angle down into very deep water. Maybe they all have to do that once in a while or they die of sleep deprivation. But probably it's one of several reasons

I think it might have something to do with the receptors on their noses (the holes that look like huge pores) I can’t remember the exact name for it but I believe the holes are for detecting electric or electrical fields since all animals have an electrical field around them. So if the can detect such small amounts of electric or energy what would it be like for them if they were put into a tank or building that’s filled with not only lots of people everywhere but also lots of electrical wiring and machinery like lights and pumps and such? I would think a constant migraine might be the closest think we could compare to such a sensory overload. While terrifying they’re actually amazing creatures when you think about it and I bet we probably don’t even know the full extent to what they can sense or how it affects them
Aquariums can be great but there really are certain animals that should never be captive.
No zoos or aquariums
@@kathychildress18 I agree
I agree and I was stunned and sickened by seeing a Whale Shark at the beginning of this video!
Set it free!!!! It will never reach its potential etc or be happy!!! Take it back to where it came from!!! Species in extreme cases of very few numbers that are trying to be brought back or rehabilitation are the only reasons any should be in captivity.
@@kathychildress18 the earth would be dust. Aquariums and zoos take good care please get used to humanity
@@kathychildress18 slightly ignorant. For rehabilitative or purposes of protection zoos make sense. Say for example an animal’s caregivers/family are poached and killed. Or are a part of a naturally dwindling species (such as the shoebill) they deserve every bit of effort to be cared for and raised in a safe environment by experts who can hopefully bring said species back from the brink of extinction.
Basically every shark has to continually swim, white sharks just need a LOT more food than any other shark
yeah i think its theorized that the megalodon died out because it couldnt keep up with its own metabolism or something
Saw the Great White at the Monterey Aquarium back in the early 2000’s. Beautiful animal and only a juvenile,but was the Alpha in the tank over other much bigger sharks and fish. We were told the day they put the Great White in the aquarium all the fish and mammals reacted with fear like it was an electric surge. The Great White lasted just about six months and had to be released. We were told the shark quit eating quite early on as if its hunting spirit was broken. Most fascinating thing I’ve ever seen at an aquarium.
Absolutely NO aquatic animal should be held against their will in captivity for human pleasure. They can be studied in the wild if that’s the purpose. If you think they don’t have the ability to decide, watch them go when released. And take note of the Orca who KILLED the keeper out of pure anxiety. Animals are not here for our pleasure. We have an OBLIGATION to protect them.
So land animals are fine? It would be better not to keep *any* animal captive. And since animals can't speak to us and give consent, treat it like consent with humans: consider it non-consentual until consent is given🤷♀️
Me with my betta fish...
On a more serious note, though. I do agree that undomesticated animals should not be kept in captivity unless they are injured or handicapped. Injured ones can be released upon recovery but the disabled ones may not survive outside. Breeding programs are also acceptable granted the parents and young are released back into the wild
Lol here we go again with all these morons that cry about animals in captivity. It just shows how ignorant you are about the REAL world and have no idea what a hard life it is for free animals compared to animals kept in good Zoos/Aquiariums that meet standard.
Not to mention all these places inspire and motivate children to study fields related to animals to keep helping them.
Typical ignorant keyboard activists
@@AKbaby89 why did you put words in the other commenter's mouth? I'm pretty sure they have the same view for all animals 🙄.
@@AKbaby89 I agree.
This goes to show that these creatures need to be in their natural environment. Not locked up like some criminal.
They should not keep marine animals in captivity in general. Many species die after a few months in captivity because they become sick or suffer from fungus. For example mola mola.
Tbh I think if they just had like live cameras in the water so you could see the creatures of the ocean while respecting them and letting them be free from captivity, that could solve probably many problems
“Fair very well in captivity”
This is the perfect moment. I am Russian and was raised in Russia for 15 years. I moved to America and yet despite the fact I’ve only been learning English for 2 years, I just really need to say: It’s *fare* in that context 💀
First thing I noticed too buddy!!
I'm a native English speaker, who had exceptionally good English marks, but probably the worst spelling possible, so I never knew that lol
Same! This channel really needs to proofread, even if English isn't their first language, because a lot of videos have incorrect grammar and spelling.
i thought this ws going to be composing Russians to great white sharks being forced to suffer in an American society😅
Excellent. Your instructor would be very proud. ❤📚
I was there in Monterey. She was a beautiful juvenile and just massive in the tank.
"Live free or die!" - Great White Shark
My goodness they really are huge (next to that diver). They really need a bigger boat, or tanks. Or probably just free all those zoo animals except for the ones that cannot survive in the wilds anymore. 😢
Imagine being the greatest apex predator, and then die easily due to not swimming enough -_-
Exactly...caging a great white is dangerous and ignorant. These people pretend to care about marine life when in reality they are running an aquatic prison
Umm ok?
imagine being a human and dying from drowning in water lmfaooo
Yeah I don’t see what being an apex predator has to do with your survival habits.
the white shark isnt a apex predator, since they get hunted by orcas :S
Great White Sharks are actually Warm-Blooded so it naturally needs a lot more energy and sustenance.
I don't understand why we still have zoos and aquariums. With all the technology we have today, we don't need to destroy their lives and make them live in a prison for us to bang on and stare at. There's no need for it whatsoever. The whole point was to allow people to see animals they would otherwise never be able to see in their life and we can do that now without the tanks and cages. It's cruel and heartbreaking.
Now, sharks scare the life out of me so I don't particularly LIKE them, but I still feel so sorry for that one that got depressed and stopped eating after it was captured💔 I don't want them to suffer
Such a "no shit sherlock" kind of fun fact 😭
Well that Great white Shark sounds like a Samurai
yet we just kept trying
Who is "we" ?
@@VeteranAlpha humans
@@charliekezza So you're basically insulting yourself?
@@VeteranAlphaas it should be. Humans are aweful creatures
@@charliekezza Every human wants to hold them captive?
That is truly heartbreaking to hear this 🦈👍🦈👍🦈
I think its about the depth of the tank. A white shark sleeps by slowly sinking into the depths.. then rising back up and doing it all over again.. they need a continental shelf nearby to be able to live a long life ..
Turn the phone upside down for the shark looking up, and it looks like a creepy face
Generally they have decided to stop trying. Took them too long, but I am glad for their acceptance of reality.
The creature's way of saying, "Leave me alone!"
Which goes to show environment plays a huge role.
“ 35 feet deep and designed specifically for a great white shark” Yeah add a couple zeros to that.
This magnificent animal needs his freedom, otherwise it dies
“They can’t fare very well in captivity.” Yeah, neither can many other large ocean animals in aquariums right now
Great white Sharks can go an average of 6 weeks without eating but it only takes a little bit of depression and they can choose to stop cyclimg water through their gills- orcas have the capacity to drown themselves without shutting their blow hole, just goes to show animals have a range of emotions 😢
