Bees Do It, even Great White Sharks Do It

Great white sharks look for girlfriends in underwater singles bar, scientists believe - Telegraph: "Great white sharks travel huge distances and mysteriously spend up to six months gathered at an isolated spot in the Pacific Ocean between California and Hawaii.

Satellite tagging has revealed that male and female sharks make frequent and repetitive dives together, which may be linked to courtship.

The stretch of ocean the sharks make for - from both California and Mexico - is not a particularly rich feeding ground but it may act as a 'singles bar' where they can find a mate."
