only ever seen Raggies (Ragged-tooth sharks), they are a bit like the bulldog of the shark world, all teeth but actually quite docile - divers even go looking for breeding grounds so they can swim with them !


Still pretty scary looking beasts. I went diving near Cape Town and ran across them. Those beady little eyes and that mounth full of teeth cranked up my breathing rate - and heart rate. They swam so close I could have grabbed on to one of them. Very impressive, very humbling.

Still, I wish I was there. It's a fantastic venue and South Africa is one of my favorite places in the world.
