A fisherman turned midwife after he helped deliver a pregnant stingray's pups seconds after catching it. Calvin Conger, 18, was about to use the ray as shark bait when he noticed another stinger sticking out of it. His father, Terry Conger, instinctively pushed down on it, and they all watched on as a baby stingray popped out. Calvin's mother, Valerie Conger, caught the incredible moment on came

A diver sedates a shark by flipping it upside down to remove a hook protruding from its mouth. Friends Cameron Nimmo and Randy Jordan have made it their mission to help sharks that have been pierced with fishing hooks and remove them from their mouths, noses, and bodies.

A huge pod of about 1,000 Common Dolphins stampeded off the coast of Dana Point, California, like a herd of wild horses. This has happened twice recently though it is very rare. The line of wild dolphins could be seen from miles away churning up the water and, to the delight of whale watching passengers and crew aboard Captain Dave’s Dolphin and Whale Safari, the dolphins turned and stampeded

It was making a b-line toward the boat. Humpbacks are graceful and fully aware of their size and of their surroundings, so the kayaker wasn’t scared (at first) but was certainl

I cannot believe this!! For most boaters, it’s the thrill of a lifetime to see a whale up close and personal. Judging by this video, it’s just a thrill for some whales to see people, too! While swimming through Mexico’s San Ignacio Lagoon, a gray whale calf and his mom approached a boat filled with tourists. As the tourists reached over the side to try and touch the whale, the mother li

YouTube user Gimbb14 was fishing off the coast Bonita Springs, Florida, when he managed to snag a five foot long black tip shark. Sadly, the ocean is a cruel mistress, and she didn’t think this particular fisherman was wo

GREAT WHITE SHARK BITES SHARK IN HALF August 20, 2014 - ocean - Tagged: animal, latest, Ocean - no comments A 10-foot shark was bitten nearly in half by a ‘monster shark’ twice it’s size – and that Great White is still on the prowl off the coast of Queensland, Australian officials said. Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water… Swimmers were warned that a “mo

While hydroelectric dams are able to generate electricity without coal or oil, they act as obstacles for wildlife, and migrating salmon in particular. When salmon are ready to reproduce, they migrate from the sea back upstream into rivers, where they spawn on gravel beds. Swimming upstream requires the ability to fight against obstacles including rapids and up over drop-offs. Traditional ladders f
