This fascinating footage shows two tiger sharks chomping down on an explorer’s GoPro camera.

Scott Miller was at Oskaloosa Island Pier, Florida, on 16 July, when he decided to drop his GoPro Max into the water below to get a closer look at the sea life.

One tiger shark instantly swims over to the gadget and chomps down on it with its sharp teeth before Mr Miller is able to pull it away.

Just moments after the camera hit the seabed again a second shark swims over and grabs it before running away with it in its throat for a further 14 seconds.

Mr Miller said: “In some way, my setup must have looked inviting, although tiger sharks are known to eat just about anything.”

Paignton Zoo Is Pretty In Pink After Rearing Rare Pigeon
Paignton Zoo Is Pretty In Pink After Rearing Rare Pigeon. Pinkness is the order of the day at Paignton Zoo after keepers successfully hand-rearing a rare pink pigeon squab for the first time. Once on the brink of extinction, their numbers in the wild were estimated to have dropped to as few as nine in 1991. However, thanks to conservation efforts by experts like Paignton Zoo's keeper Tom Tooley and his colleagues, the species has seen a gradual recovery. Tom, who has worked as a bird keeper at the zoo for over 27 years, pioneered a new method for hand-rearing young pigeons, or squabs, that have been abandoned by their parents. Explaining his approach, Tom said, “I developed a method which involves attaching a carefully sized catheter to a syringe, gently placed on the squab's tongue”. “This allows the squabs to consume the hand-rearing formula naturally.” Tom's even been to Mauritius to teach local conservationists his revolutionary method for rearing the rare bird - as efforts step up to bring it back from the brink.

Ecolectro stuffs hydrogen production into shipping containers to cut costs
It lost the battle over personal transportation to battery electric vehicles, and for industrial users, it remains far more expensive than natural gas. Like many hydrogen entrepreneurs, Gabriel Rodriguez-Calero figures the best way to rein in costs is to bring production closer to where it’s being used. More recently, though, scientists have been exploring ways of making cheaper electrolyzers more efficient.
