Filmed by the Bimini Biological Field Station Foundation, using DJI phantom drone. This species is sighted rarely, but known to use the islands of Bimini occasionally.
This clip is a segment of a 7 minute track of this incredible species, as it swims across the sandy shallows of Bimini.
“Amazingly, this chance encounter is one of two smalltooth sawfish sightings in South Bimini, only a matter of days apart!” says the Bimini Biological Field Station – Sharklab, who captured the footage, in a Facebook post. “It showcases the incredible camouflage these animals have against the seabed, their huge size and of course bizarre head-weaponry.”
