'Shark cams' reveal Ningaloo sea turtles freeze to escape predators'
gaze
Sea turtles stay still to avoid detection by prowling tiger sharks,
according to scientists who clamped cameras to the dorsal fins of the
apex predator off the coast of Western Australia.
About 70 hours of footage was captured from the backs of four sharks -
ranging between 2.8 and 3.5 metres long - at the World Heritage-listed
Ningaloo Reef near Exmouth, with the recordings altered to replicate
the black-and-white vision of the tiger shark.
