1/3 of the oxygen we breath and a large percentage of the food we eat
come from the ocean.
An amazing truth is that our ocean's health is largely dependent on an abundant shark population...
Last night I had the pleasure of attending a private screening of Guy Harvey and Jim Abernathy's documentary,
What I learned is that
We are all creatures on this earth
We all have intelligence and instincts
We all try to survive..
And yet people are slaughtering these animals by the millions
I watched a poignant scene where a giant Tiger shark the size of a small car bonded with Jim, as it's nose bumped and poked at his dive mask. The shark ever-so-slightly approached him as he lay very still on the ocean floor. Jim is convinced the shark knows him after he's been diving around him in the Bahamas for 7 years.
It was a reminder that we all need to transform our fear of the unknown into an exploration of the truth. And the truth is this animal is beautiful, fascinating, and was here long before we were.
