The Dorsal Fin

YouTube user eclundpoland recently posted this shark diving video, which contains both video footage and some stills of whale shark encounters at the Galapagos, along with brief footage of a few hammerheads at the beginning. The footage was shot this month and offers a small glimpse of the abundant wildlife that the Galapagos Islands have to offer.

YouTube user Jero Prieto recently posted 91 seconds of some excellent shark footage. According to the YouTube info, it was shot last month in the Galapagos. The footage features schooling hammerheads being closely followed by a whale shark. The camera angle as the whale shark passes by really makes for some fantastic footage. Take note that at no point in the video do the divers decide to hitch a ride on, stand on, or have a party with 14 of their closest friends on the whale shark.
