^ First ever recorded video of wild leopard sharks mating (here, two males and a female) off Caledonia, an archipelago in the south-west Pacific Ocean. “It was over quickly for both males, one after the other. The first took 63 seconds, the other 47.” “Despite their broad range, their wild mating behaviour has remained largely undocumented until now, with most research carried out in aquariums.” Read more about the event (and watch the video) here.
“Grab her by the fin” is a common mating position in many shark species, whereby the female is pinned down into position:
