WELCOME TO "THE DAILY BITE,"
NOT TO BE CONFUSED
WITH THE OTHER DAILY BITE,
WHICH IS FOR DENTISTS,
AND I HEAR 4 OUT OF 5 APPROVE.
RIMSHOT!
RIMSHOT.
SFX.
Butters: WELCOME, WELCOME.
IT'S A MERE 14 DAYS
TO "SHARK WEEK,"
AND ON TODAY'S EPISODE,
WE'VE COOKED UP A GREAT ONE.
WE FIND OUT THE BIGGEST THREATS
TO THEIR ENVIRONMENTS
AND MORE YAMANEIKA VISION,
JUST FOR YOU.
THIS IS "THE DAILY BITE."
TECHNOLOGY HAS ADVANCED A LOT
OVER THE LAST 30 YEARS.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK
AT HOW SOME OF IT
HAS EVOLVED HERE
ON "SHARK WEEK."
Skomal: MEET SHARK CAM'S
BIG SISTER, SHARK CAM 2.
THIS AMAZING VEHICLE
CAN GO DEEPER,
DOWN TO 2,000 FEET.
IT CAN GO LONGER,
IT CAN GO FASTER.
MY DREAM IS TO FIND
A BIG WHITE SHARK,
TRACK IT INTO THE ABYSS,
AND FOLLOW IT AT NIGHT.
WE'VE GOT CAMERAS,
WE'VE GOT LIGHTS,
SO WE CAN TURN IT ALL ON AND SEE
WHAT THE ANIMALS ARE DOING.
Narrator:
TO FOLLOW A GREAT WHITE,
FIRST, THEY HAVE TO TAG IT.
Skomal: READY?
THIS IS WHAT WE WANT.
YES! YES!
Man: GET IT?
YES, YES, YES, YES!
LET'S GO, LET'S GO, LET'S GO.
Narrator:
EVERY FEW SECONDS, SCARBOARD'S
TAG SENDS ITS POSITION
VIA AN ACOUSTIC SIGNAL
TO SHARK CAM.
THE ROBOT SUB LOCKS
ONTO THE SIGNAL
AND HEADS AFTER THE SHARK.
Skomal: THAT IS SPECTACULAR.
Woman: I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING
LIKE THAT BEFORE.
Skomal: DON'T -- SEE,
HER TAIL WAS BARELY MOVING.
YEAH, LOOK AT THAT.
YEAH.
SHE'S GLIDING.
THAT'S AN AMAZING SHOT.
IT'S LIKE BEING UNDER
THE BELLY OF AN AIRPLANE.
LOOK AT THAT.
RIGHT?
THAT IS AMA-- PERFECT.
THREE METERS DOWN,
THREE METERS BEHIND.
THAT'S EXACTLY WHERE
SHE'S SUPPOSED TO BE.
THIS IS THE FIRST TIME,
AT DEPTH,
WE ARE WATCHING
WHAT THESE ANIMALS DO
WHEN THEY REALLY SLIP
OUT OF SIGHT.
AMAZING, SEEING THINGS
WE'VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE.
AND THIS IS JUST
THE BEGINNING.
UH-OH.
OHH!
OH, MY GOSH!
THOUGH IT MIGHT SEEM LIKE IT,
IT'S NOT ALL SILLY JOKES
AND MADE-UP WORDS HERE
ON "THE DAILY BITE."
TO REALLY SPEAK TO
THE CURRENT CONDITIONS
OF OUR SUFFERING
SHARK ECOSYSTEMS,
IN THIS NEXT SEGMENT,
WE TAKE A DEEP DIVE
INTO THE PRACTICES CURRENTLY
THREATENING SHARK POPULATIONS.

SO IT'S BEEN A LONG JOURNEY
OUT TO SEA,
BUT WE FINALLY HAVE
OUR HATE TRAWLER,
AND WE'VE HEARD THAT
THESE GUYS ARE HAULING IN
A HUGE AMOUNT OF BY-CATCH,
INCLUDING SHARKS.
THE PLAN IS TO PULL UP,
RIGHT NEXT TO THE BOAT,
TRY TO GET A LITTLE BIT
OF LEEWAY ON THAT NET,
GET IN THE WATER REALLY QUICKLY,
LET THAT NET COME TO US,
AND THEN GET OUR CAMERAS
AS CLOSE AS WE CAN,
SEE WHAT WE SEE IN THE NET.
THERE'S THAT LITTLE SQUARE DOOR
BEHIND ME,
ON THE SIDE OF THE VESSEL,
RIGHT THERE.
THAT'S WHERE THEY SHOVEL OUT
ALL THE BY-CATCH
ONCE THEY SORT THEIR CATCH UP
ON THE DECK OF THE BOAT.
♪♪
Man: GOOD LUCK. GOOD LUCK.
GO!
GO, GO, GO, GO.
THE GUYS HAVE JUST
JUMPED IN HERE.
THE VERY FIRST BIT OF LONG LINE
THAT THEY WENT DOWN ON,
THEY'VE SEEN SHARKS.
NOW, YOU CAN IMAGINE
THAT THIS GOES ON
FOR MILES AND MILES AND MILES.
THERE ARE GONNA BE
A LOT OF SHARKS HERE.
♪♪
♪♪
I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT.
ON THE TWO HOOKS THAT I SAW
IN THE SHORT, LITTLE DISTANCE
THAT I FOLLOWED THAT LINE,
THERE'S A SHARK ON EACH HOOK.
THE ONE THAT I WENT DOWN
AND PICKED UP,
A LITTLE,
TINY JUVENILE BLUE SHARK.
COULDN'T BELIEVE IT.
THIS REALLY PISSES ME OFF,
SEEING THIS WHOLE SITUATION.
THESE SHARKS HAVE BEEN KILLED
IN GILL NETS, IN TRAWLERS,
AND HERE ON LONG LINES,
AND NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT
WHAT IS HAPPENING OUT HERE,
ON THE HIGH SEAS.
I THINK IT'S ABOUT TIME
THAT WE GET THIS SHARK BACK IN
AND LAY IT TO REST.

FRIENDS, IT IS TIME TO CHECK IN
WITH YAMANEIKA SAUNDERS,
WHO'S GOT A SPECIAL LOOK
AT THE LAWS O' JAWS.
LET'S WATCH.

NO!
WHAT?
NO!
HERE'S THE THING -- THESE SHARKS
ONLY WANT TO EAT PEOPLE, OKAY?
YOU HAVE NOT SEEN ONE SHARK
TRYING TO EAT ANY OF
THESE PEOPLE.
THESE PEOPLE ARE OUT THERE,
PUTTING THEMSELVES ON THE MENU.
THIS IS WHY WE NEED
THE LAWS OF JAWS --
TO PROTECT SHARKS FROM US.
♪♪
FOR ME TO REENACT THESE SCENES,
THEY WOULD HAVE TO MAKE ME
THE QUEEN OF SHARKS.
YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M SAYING?
LIKE, THERE'S NOT EVEN ANY TYPE
OF MONETARY THING
YOU COULD GIVE ME.
I DON'T -- I DON'T --
I DON'T NEED THE MONEY.
I NEED TO, NOW, CONTROL AND HAVE
SUPER POWERS OVER THE SHARKS.
SO, WHATEVER THAT THING, UH,
AQUAMAN HAD WHEN HE USED
TO BUBBLE IT OUT,
THAT'S WHAT I NEED,
AND THEN YOU'LL SEE ME OUT
THERE, SWIMMING WITH SHARKS.
YOU BETTER NOT MISS
"THE LAWS OF JAWS,"
ONLY ON "SHARK WEEK."
THANKS FOR WATCHING MY FAVY
IN THE NAVY SHOW.
I'M PRETTY SURE IT'S CALLED
"THE HOURLY NIBBLE,"
OR SOMETHING.
EH, SEEMS FINE.
TURN OFF THE LIGHTS.
I AM SLEEPING HERE.
AND, BRUCE, I CALL LITTLE SPOON
THIS TIME!
UGH! GOT TO KEEP AN EYE
ON THAT GUY.
