Tiger Sharks and Bull Sharks in the Bahamas

Eric Cheng's footage of tiger sharks in the Bahamas. We're at the end of a line hanging from the Shear Water (live-aboard dive vessel), in a 2-3 knot current. The tiger sharks in this video are between 10 and 14 feet long, and you can see bull sharks swimming around in the background. More photos at http://echeng.com/travel/ .

The Ganges shark, Glyphis gangeticus, is a rare species of fresh water shark that dwells in the Ganges River. It should not be confused with the Bull shark, which also inhabits the Ganges River and is sometimes referred to as the Ganges shark.
