It's that time of year! Time for episode two!
In this episode it's decided whether land and sea animals will fall into two different categories, there's some questioning of the Intelligence/ Instinct category, and then we learn about the vicious and ambush-prone Oceanic Whitetip Shark. Full disclosure, the map I talk about in the review was actually for the Whitetip Reef Shark, so I have included the correct map down below. They actually have a pretty big territory.
Oh, and don't be dicks to sharks people. You look like a turtle so of course they want a bite of you. (See picture below)
