This Gigantic Shark is a HUGE Mystery

- Jasmin joins PhD student and Minorities In Shark Sciences co-founder Jaida Elcock on her mission to find and tag a massive and mysterious shark: the basking shark. If Jaida can succeed at tagging the endangered animals, then she can understand where these animals hide out and how to protect them. But it won’t be easy, so an international collaboration with friends in Ireland might hold some answers.
On Sharks Unknown, host Jasmin Graham joins her peers in shark science to investigate mysteries including shark migration, and the effects of climate change. Jasmin and her guests connect on how their lives inform and impact their research.

The 2 largest fish on Earth are both filter feeders. The basking shark, and the whale shark.
Mad - im from ireland and have seen a bunch of basking sharks - never realised how hard it is to find them when youre actually looking for them
They live for a long time. Maybe you were seeing the same ones a lot :O
I’ve only seen the ocean once in my 19 years, you’re lucky to have even grown up near the ocean
20% of the world's population of basking sharks can be found in Irish waters @@Purpzie
I am from West Cork, also grew up watching these giants. May, June and July in West Cork they come right in close to the shore.

Take it from an old geezer,
You are never too young to enjoy life.
There are plenty of good jobs by the ocean.
Some pay okay, and some not so good.
If you really like the ocean, I think you should at least apply for some seasonal jobs.
Start by looking into some hospitality jobs in oceanside resort towns.
Work your butt off, and get noticed.
Start volunteering with some tour companies, or even better in some ocean research projects.
You will get noticed, and before long someone will offer you a better job.
Possibly even helping to fund furthering your education.
If you decide to go home and work on furthering your education you will still have 6 to 9 months a year for that.
However I suspect your family will want to visit you as much as possible, and there are some excellent ocean side colleges.
Even though I can guarantee you will never get rich, I can also guarantee you will have a more enjoyable life than 99% of the people out there
I wish I had this advice 30 years earlier.
I am living the life now, but feel I could have had a much better life.
I genuinely appreciate the 'school bus for length' graphic! As we all know, we USians measure in anything but the metric system 😂😂
this is exactly why we need much better underwater tech with long lasting batteries. Tagging animals is one thing but having 'smart tiny subs' follow them around and gather data would make this research so much easier and would reveal patterns that otherwise stay hidden because you're tracking individuals and not getting the whole picture.
I never realised PBS Terra had shark videos! Sharrrkkksss!!
MISS are amazing!
Basking sharks are the most unique sharks. Always thought they were wonderfully weird.
I wonder if they simply know where the travel routes are and venture to them in hopes of bumping into another shark. Because from what I've read sharks have no means of communication with sound; they simply don't have an organ or appendage to make sound with. Maybe they release a chemical or hormone trail into the water that other sharks detect and follow? I haven't read anything about that before.
I know they are harmless but if I saw any animal swimming towards me with such a huge mouth wide open.
I would definitely be a little nervous.
Loving these videos and learning so much, keep up the great work
I didn't expect that hand slap 😂
Incredible keep grinding on finding it.
I wonder if we could do some kind of electro sensory thing to try and locate them or maybe camera traps? Finding stuff in the ocean seems like seems like such a nightmare.
Just gotta say, before I watch the video, Jasmin has such a good job.
Gets to play with wonderful people doing their marine biology stuff and gets to see close up all these beautiful sea creatures!*
If ever you want to do an exchange, Jasmine...it's never gonna happen is it? lol
Spoiler EDIT:
But not this time lol
any filter feeding sharks are automatically rad in my book
I love these gentle giant's big soft and friendly kinda lol.
To bad people kill these ither by mistake or on porpoise.
I would think that drones would be the ideal assistant in the search for the illusive basking shark.
Wind would be an issue unless you had a really beefy drone, and that would be expensive.
I'm too old and too much of a poet (not to mention I'm terrified of the ocean) but when I was a kiddo I always wanted to study biology and, being from Seattle of course it woulda been marine biology but I never had teh head for it. Otherwise I could be a gender minority shark scientist too, instead I'm just a gender minority poet/mathematician but I do love me some data so if y'all know a handy Bioinformatics program related to sharks I'd be curious.
Aick,
I think most of us grew up afraid of the ocean.
However as long as you are still waking up above ground it's never too late to change that
It only takes a few days to overcome that fear.
If you can take a short guided kayak tour it's a good start, and I can promise you will enjoy it.
If that is impossible, I am certain you would enjoy a whale watching tour.
I know your poetry will probably improve afterwards.
Sorry, but your mathematic skills won't.
@@sailorstu Well if you knew my poetry or my mathematics you'd know they come from the same place: Nature. ;) I'm just not a sea creature, but I have been in the ocean far too many times already thanks.
Drones might be useful for searching for basking sharks. It would basically be the same concept as hunting submarines from the air. The drones would cover a wide area and the sharks are big enough that they should stand out fairly well.
That's definitely one of the creepiest looking sharks
I love the dynamic
Soooo coool Love it!
Hpe to see you soon Jasmin!!
Absolutely loved this! ❤❤❤🦈🦈
Nope nope nope nope. That void freaks me out more than heights
Fascinating!
Hey girls! Great job, luv ya ☺️👍🏽
what an incredible animal! i can't get over how strange its mouth looks when it's open!
So cool thanks
A suggestion: Try doing next summers research in The Bay of Fundy. Get the word out early to local fishermen and whale tour operators. Also, there is a Whale and Seabird Research Station on Grand Manan that may be able and willing to help.
I didn’t know it had a goofy nose 💀
wait, so did jada and jasmin ever find a basking shark??
Free Universal Higher Education should be advocated by anyone who wishes to see more minorities and disadvantaged groups in science.
The other aspect is family stability. Poverty makes education incredibly challenging. If we want kids to learn we must employ their parents. A Federally funded Job Guarantee Program, at a living wage and benefits, is a prerequisite for the empowerment and education of disadvantaged groups. We can't afford NOT to employ and educated everyone.

I know so little even though I think I know a lot!!! I’ve never heard of these animals!!! Great video but way too short!!! Edit! One of the GREAT things about this video is seeing two WOMEN of COLOR doing the video!! It’s BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
pog shark pog shark
My fellow Guyanese representing.
srsly? They are all over the place up the west coast of England, Wales & Scotland, ie all over the Irish Sea coastlines, east & west.
cannot stand when someone's voice keeps ending a sentence in that "upward toned question mark" its so patronizingly annoying.
sarcasm / And here I thought all scientists were white males from rich families / sarcasm
i dont like this "MTV"-style of the video .
But these days the minority is the majority...
but what do basking sharks have to do with crack cocaine, basketball and morbid obesity?
Yeah ok.,.. those presenters made this completely unwatchable
