At a shark diving site by the capital city, Mali, spinner sharks gather in great numbers.
Large stingrays also sense it's time for lunch. A welcoming committee circles below us.
A large tiger shark glides past, soon followed by the stocky bull sharks.
The tiger sharks are curious and start to swim closer.

When diving with sharks, it's wise to check behind you.

This juvenile hammerhead shark also comes to investigate.
The tiger sharks grow in confidence and swim closer and closer.
I'm suddenly surrounded by fish. A chum bucket has been dropped just above my head.
My vision is limited by the tornado of swirling fish and I know the tiger sharks will be closing
in. I'm thankful for my camera to keep the tiger sharks at bay. In the chaos, this enterprising
tiger shark steals a bait box. It's definitely time to leave, but there's no clear path to the
surface. We make it, but one last tiger shark comes to say goodbye during our decompression stop.
