    Very surprised how gentle they were. And how they cooperated coming in one at a time.

    Thanks!
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    Aw, how gentle they are. I love Mako and great white sharks, also Burmese Bamboo sharks are cool. I'm saddened that I don't have an opportunity to see them in the wild.

    I agree! They are definitely gentle giants, even in the wild. It's encouraging to see more facilities working with various species and having reproductive success in captivity.
