Grey Reef Sharks (Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos) have a reputation for being curious and somewhat bold in the presence of humans, often approaching divers and snorkelers in their natural habitat. However, they are generally not aggressive unless provoked or feeling threatened. These sharks exhibit body language that can indicate their comfort level, such as swimming patterns and postures. For instance, a Grey Reef Shark may display a hunched back and lowered pectoral fins as a sign of agitation or discomfort. Understanding these signals is crucial for divers and researchers to ensure safe and respectful encounters.
