Tawny Nurse Shark (Nebrius concolor) A group of sharks swimming around me at night. We had brought with us a big can with holes full of tuna bits, and that attracted dozens of fairly large (3-4 meter) sharks. Nurse sharks can get extremely close in these feeding frenzies, but are harmless to humans. Vaavu Atoll, Maldives
