At the end of the day it's a sharks habitat and we are just visiting. We must respect these creatures and understand that they are apex preditors. They keep our oceans clean, I am personally terrified of sharks but understand that with out them our oceans will be in worse conditions than what they are currently.

They are pretty close to the pier I noticed and they love being near there due to people fishing, its easy food for them. Plus the whole ocean is their home its not like they have a barrier separating them from the shoreline.

Drymond says 'As a shark nerd it doesn't concern me at all.' Maybe more responsible would be him to clarify that the most common shark in that area is the Bull Shark; potentially more aggressive than either the Great White or Tiger, e.g. teenage girl on boogie board killed on Florida panhandle within the last couple years. I am pro animal until animals attack people; then I am pro people. We kill bears and mountain lions that attack people; we should do the same for sharks. A technology that should be employed at popular beaches is using drones, and a life guard watching the drone footage.

You obviously don't understand the situation on Ft. Morgan. There are no life guards on any beach on Ft. Morgan. It's forty miles to the next town, Gulf Shores which has life guards on a 1/2 mile stretch. The rest of their beaches have no life guards. I doubt you live here so STFU.

@@LG-pj4qh exactly. The water also isn’t all that clear. So unless the shark is really close to the surface you’re not gonna see it. I own a condo at Orange beach and I don’t think there is any way we could spot a shark unless it was within 6’ of the shoreline. Too much sediment from the bay and even from the MS River plume still.

Why are these reports taking on the attitude of surprise that a shark might be seen in the ocean? Over 100 million sharks are slaughtered every year, by fishing methods, overfishing & of course, just for their fins, shark fin soup. I understand people are fearful but if they researched more, they'd realize humans are not on a shark's menu, incidents rarely occur & seldom fatal. We need to protect sharks, become more aware of their place in the ecosystem, their right to be in the ocean where they were born, & is their home. ( not ours).

OMG, there are sharks in the ocean?! Well I can’t get in the ocean now! 🤦‍♂️🙄 Hammerheads aren’t even a threat. They don’t attack people. In almost 600 years of shark attack records there are only 17 cases of a hammerhead, all species of hammerheads, biting a person. In most cases it’s because the person was messing with the shark in some way, like feeding it or something. Hammerheads are not a threat! I’d count myself lucky to have the thrill of a lifetime of a hammerhead swimming with me!!!

@@mamacat63 mouth size is irrelevant. it’s behavior that counts. see my original comment. including ALL species of hammerheads, including the Giant Hammerheads, there have only been 17 attacks in 600 years of records by them and only something like 4 fatalities. They just aren’t interested in us and therefore pose no threat. Many of the attacks have been in cases of spear fishermen having their catch on a stringer attached to them and the hammerhead went after the stringer and got a piece of the diver along with it. But straight out attacks from hammerheads just don’t happen. It’s Bulls, Great Whites, Tigers and Black Tips that are responsible for almost all attacks.
