Shark Men
As one of the planet's most feared creatures, few people would search out a great white shark, let alone try to catch one. Shark Men features a team of anglers and scientists who go against the grain and actively try to hunt these skilled predators. Their aim: to uncover spectacular secrets about the shark's migratory patterns, breeding and birthing sites. Join the crew and experts from Expedition Great White as they set out to land even more monster great whites. Includes four episodes from Season Two: Murky Waters, Hot Water, Surfing with Sharks, and Young and Hungry.
