I moved in 2004 to Aransas Pass, TX. 3 days after unpacking I WAS AT FISHING PIER where man hooked a huge sea turtle. me and my adult kids helped the gentleman get the turtle to shallows. she had leader wires & to hooks in her jaw, flippers and carapace. I had my toolbox with bolt cutters. it took 4 of us over an hour snipping tackle to remove 16 hooks from the very cooperative turtle. first i called the UofT ARK rescue on 1Port Aransas to report location of the turtle, but left the info on a answering machine. with no clue if they were coming, I had nearly all of the hooks removed when1 ARK arrived. its against the law to handle the sea turtles without proper credentials .one woman was utterly wretched to me for even touching the turtle. luckily Dr. Amos noted my wildlife rescue certificate. the turtle was taken to ARK for eval,and 5 days later i was invited. to attend her release. always keep a rescue box with me. 🤔

That's not the first time that guy has done that, that's a bad ass fisherman right there. He knew exactly what he was doing. Respect the animals you catch!

Hammerheads are considered to be a top predator among all the other sharks. It's because their sonar ability is so precise and can reach for miles. Such a magnificent creature

The hammerhead shape provides a wider field of vision and helps them scan the ocean floor. and they have an Ampullae of Lorenzini or special sensory organs that helps them detect electrical fields, allowing them to find prey that might be buried in the sand. Hammerheads are particularly known for their love of stingrays and often use their heads to pin them down. They don't really attack humans and have been observed sun tanning their skin actually will get tan in the sun and they seem to enjoy it.

it was probably in the back of his truck for work and he just ran to his truck and grabbed it cuz it wasn't very far away this man yeah you could say he's got nerves of steel I just say he's educated he knows what he's doing and how to do it he looks like he's done it before and it's so nice to be able to see people saving an animal from the ocean saving any animal in fact

There was no danger to the rescuers however they may have been splashed with water. They did a good thing by taking the hook out and returning it back to the sea kudos

Amazing! Just because LOOKS scary or mean or evil…doesn’t necessarily mean they are! A lot of bigger guys get treated the same way! Nature is nature and yes they would attack if they smelled blood but they are INNOCENT

It's illegal to catch a hammerhead. They're protected, at least in Florida. Saw a big one caught and released.

people who go to the beach have jobs that might use Bolt cutters and they have them in their vehicles.... that they drove to the beach in.... not in their beach bag....

Definitely not worth losing a finger or hand! Hook would not impede the sharks eating habits,it would’ve came out on its own just like it does with other species of fish!
