  • - [Mark] Oh my gosh, a shark.

  • - Oh my gosh, a shark.

  • - [Mark] Get Mario.

  • (dramatic music)

  • - The southern coastline of Africa

  • is an intertidal ecosystem flush

  • with bizarre looking ocean creatures.

  • From buggy eyed toad fish, to slippery octopus,

  • these were animal oddities that I really

  • had to work hard to get my hands on.

  • Got it yes, wow what a scoop!

  • The crew and I spent the morning exploring isolated pockets

  • of water and in the process captured on camera,

  • one of our most epic Beyond the Tide episodes.

  • Oh my gosh there's an octopus, nobody move.

  • Do you see him?

  • - [Mark] Right there, right there.

  • There he is, you got him.

  • - Yes, woo, how 'bout that!

  • After wrapping up the scene and releasing the octopus back

  • into its watery abyss, we started to film

  • some environmental b-roll shots and happened

  • upon a scenario I have dreamed of

  • since starting this aquatic series.

  • - [Mark] Oh my gosh, a shark.

  • - Oh my gosh, a shark.

  • - [Mario] Okay Mario. (laughs)

  • I can't believe that, I'm like this is so cool,

  • I look over, I'm like, a shark.

  • - The camera team is just returning,

  • I think the goal here is gonna be to catch the shark,

  • look at it very quickly.

  • We definitely don't want to stress it out

  • or try to handle it for too long

  • but this is so cool, a shark in a tide pool.

  • Alright guys so this is super crazy.

  • We just got finished filming with an octopus

  • and there is a shark in this pocket of water.

  • That is a spotted gully shark.

  • They are bottom feeders and unlike great white sharks

  • or tiger sharks they only have small little blunted teeth,

  • so it should be okay for me to gently pick up this shark.

  • Are you guys ready?

  • - [Mark] Yep.

  • - I've no idea how fast it's gonna move.

  • I'm gonna actually not use my net and try

  • to grab it by the back of the tail.

  • They have very sandpaper like skin

  • so I should be able to grip on there no problem.

  • - [Mark] Heads up.

  • - Okay, I got ahold of it there, bringing it up.

  • Hey buddy.

  • Look at that!

  • That is the first shark we have ever caught

  • or featured on the Brave Wilderness channel.

  • What a beautiful fish.

  • And, the way that I can tell that this

  • is a spotty gully shark, see all those black spots?

  • Pretty obvious right?

  • And they usually have a very light colored belly.

  • They also have very distinct triangular pectoral fins,

  • very distinct triangular dorsal fin

  • and then a second fin on the rear part of its tails

  • that's almost as tall as the actual dorsal fin.

  • All right, I'm gonna dunk it back down,

  • it's being very calm.

  • That it's so cool!

  • The spotty gully shark is a species of hound shark

  • that can often be found in shallow inshore waters.

  • They favor sandy tide pools, such as,

  • the ones we have been exploring,

  • and occasionally find themselves marooned

  • when the tide drops.

  • When you run their fingers in one direction

  • across the skin it's smooth

  • but if you go in reverse direction it feels

  • just like sandpaper.

  • Go ahead Mar, pet the shark.

  • - [Mark] Smooth.

  • - [Coyote] Go one way.

  • - [Mark] Wow.

  • - [Coyote] Right?

  • - [Mark] Very rough.

  • - Like a fine grit sandpaper right there.

  • Now this shark has one, two, three, four, five gill slits.

  • Now when we're talking about the teeth of this creature,

  • it's almost like a cheese grater.

  • What they feed on are small crustaceans

  • and other animals on the basin of the ocean.

  • And actually, this is one of those rare occasions

  • where I could probably be bitten by a shark

  • and be just fine.

  • They often times will hunt in tide pools

  • just sifting along the bottom

  • for small crabs and other mollusks.

  • Let me dip it again.

  • Woo, that is so cool being able to handle a shark.

  • Okay buddy, there you go there you go.

  • At nearly three feet in length

  • this shark is considered a juvenile.

  • Yet, they can reach lengths of nearly six feet

  • and are primarily active at night,

  • feeding on crustaceans small fish,

  • and cephalopods, such as, octopuses.

  • Bring the shark back up here.

  • - [Mark] Man, a tide pool shark.

  • - So cool right?

  • Now, you may be saying to yourselves,

  • Coyote is this shark permanently marooned in this tide pool?

  • No, actually the tide is on its way back in right now

  • and once the water hits deep enough,

  • it will be able to move to the next pocket

  • or out in the ocean if it chooses to.

  • But, what a cool opportunity for us

  • to get a shark up close for the cameras.

  • Talk about topping off a damn tide pooling

  • here in South Africa.

  • I'm Coyote Peterson, be brave, stay wild.

  • We'll see ya on the next adventure.

  • Alright buddy, let's put it back in the environment

  • and get some cool shots of it swimming around.

  • There you go.

  • Wow, that's awesome!

  • As I released the shark into a deeper pocket of water,

  • I could hardly believe that this

  • was the ultimate conclusion to our epic day of tide pool.

  • And as its silhouette disappeared into the current,

  • I watched with a childlike wonder

  • and a sense of gratitude for the path

  • that led the team and I to this moment in time,

  • which marked the day we finally found

  • and caught a tide pool shark.

  • Nice, down into the depths of that pool.

  • Wow, the first shark, on Brave Wilderness!

  • That was epic.

  • Woo, tide's comin' in, let's go guys.

  • Yeah, Mario.

  • What did ya think of that?

  • - [Mark] Yeah. (laughs)

  • - If you missed the start of

  • this unbelievable tide pool adventure,

  • make sure to go back and watch part one,

  • where I got my hands on one slippery octopus.

  • Wow that is so cool, like a big slimy bugger!

  • And don't forget subscribe so you can join me and the crew

  • on our next low tide adventure.

  • (howling)

- [Mark] Oh my gosh, a shark.
