Thread: Cow Rays

Hey Tom, I wonder if the decreased numbers of large palagic sharks like you mentioned has contributed to the increase in the smaller coastal shark species too (bulls, spinners, blacktips, ASNs).
Don't the big ones eat the littler ones? :slap:

It is my understanding that only bull sharks and tiger sharks actively pursue and eat other shark species. Great whites will attack for territorial reasons.

Most other sharks will flee an area once stress pheromones are released by a bitten or injured shark.

Last year we were trolling and came across a stretch of rays that was as wide as the eye could see and they swam East for an hour plus. I'm guessing it was some kind of migratory thing.
