Aerial footage captures thousands of sharks swimming off Florida coast
Thousands of sharks have been spotted off Palm Beach as they gather for this season’s migration. Florida Atlantic University professor Stephen Kajiura captured this video showing blacktip sharks in the waters off Palm Beach – Feb 18, 2016

Biologists at Florida Atlantic University’s (FAU) Elasmobranch Research Laboratory were conducting aerial research last week, when they came upon a massive migration of blacktip sharks. The extent of the migration stretched from Palm Beach up to Jupiter, about 25 km away.

The video and images have since exploded on the internet.

The sharks have arrived! Thousands of sharks spotted off Palm Beach this morning during the aerial survey flight. Looking forward to fishing and tagging this weekend. #sharkmigration #blacktip #shark @colganfoundation
