Hammerhead!


No worries, this was not taken in the ocean.  However, for general information: mama hammerheads come into Kaneohe Bay on the Windward side of Oahu to give birth.  I participated in a research study several years ago, tracking the baby hammerheads.  We caught, tagged, and released the hammerheads.  It was rather surprising how many there were.  As with most babies, they were very cute.  I never heard any results from the research.  So, I don't know how many stay in the bay and how many go out into the ocean??
