I'm starting to think that finding a bona fide tiger or a great white to dive with is kinda like love... One won't show up until I STOP looking for 'em... :lol:

With all due with respect Paul, IMO, you not lucky with tigers :lol: but seriously....there is. Just not when you were there. There is a 12-15 footer that cruises the island. Couple locals talk about the same one, same place they talk about....

Eh a 12-14ft tiger swam by us between Lanai and Lahaina, he was just cruisin' on by. I wanted to go swim with him, but figured it'd proally just cause problems ;)

I try to be cool, but think the drooling, the hung jaw and the bug eyes might give me away sometimes. :lol:

Sometimes I dunno about these studies. So the shark knows where to get food. Wow. They make it sound like it has an internal gps navigational system or something. It's hungry, it knows where to get food, it goes to get it. Geez. How many millions are going into this study?

Kinda, sharks use the magnetic field of earth for navigation.

damn I'm smart!
Hahaha, that gif of the dolphin -- I can imagine the discussion between them when they got back in the water. "Brah, that was my wake, why you cut me off?!?"
