Were Bull Sharks The Inspiration For The “River Monsters” Of Lakota Mythology?
That is a Shark Week show I would like to see.
As their dark shadow passes through the tunnel of our deepest fear’s very morphology, a contour of Fate we each have touched in the recesses of dreams.
Ah, me- the Bull shark is arguably the most adaptable apex predator in the Animal Kingdom. What other predator can move so freely between such disparate environmental realms? As it swims alone where never believed to be home: selective forces, witnesses kissing crosses, because there is no way that Bull Shark in the river is going to let that little boy go.
Here, the Bull Shark species- over millions of years- embracing mutation that enables this dual domination as apex predator, feeding opportunistically as its metabolic will directs and the timeless moment shall allow: thou shark, a harbinger of demise, in the open sea, the migrating White shark’s black-blue eyes- it was there they looked through me when biting down on the tuna offering our cage dive was proffering, its raptor gaze without feeling or remorse, its course now focused on our splashing – we play; yet, in an instant, the White shark could have its way. The shark’s sheer violent temperament a portal to vengeance, violence upon the weak, exacting wrath on our bodies and the imaginary control we seek.
Thrash, thrash, the pull underneath- gnashing teeth, the bites are relentless like swarming bees, gashing our lineaments, sawing digits and severing knees. As bubbles rise amidst my demise, red plume spilled like Rhone over blue sea, known in an instant, this silent attacker knows thee.
My dear Siren, your rocks seem more at ease than he.
Conspicuously, the Bull Shark’s “hyperactive” attacking style could verily be in part attributable to our ancestors’ sedentary lifestyle- both you and me. With such a predictable flow of bycatch and scavenging opportunities, early Hominids and human beings provided Bull Sharks- indeed, all the “man-eating” shark species- with a protein source and more complex and perpetually changing cultural pattern that likely helped “fuel” the (albeit limited) reorganization of the pelagic shark’s brain- just as plants stretch higher to reach the purest rain-not unlike how the advent of bipedalism enabled our true hunting prowess, and the ability to scavenge for each competitor works and is as an integrated survival strategy.
O Angel, the shark was both revered, feared and, well, who are we kidding, often speared- by society, not just men. Society works and is inside the kin selection that binds mammal social groups together, like sinew. Yet all gene pools depend on the other for genetic diversity, and this gene flow between groups exists between established White shark populations, e.g., South Africa and Western Australia. But these two are more dangerous to man in terms of predation.
Tell me, why are these White shark populations more prone to consume humans in the modern day than the Pacific White sharks out our way? My guess is the behavioral gene that presses down upon the White shark’s inclination to avoid humans entirely- was expressed in a much higher frequency in Pacific White shark populations, i.e., those that had this gene in the latter gene pool were more likely to pass genes on to the next generation insofar it was a favorable trait in comparison to the “fearless of human society” behavioral gene).
It seems Bull Sharks occupy every major estuarine route that supported the major civilizations of the World. I need not name them to know them though I have sailed them in my dreams, the Holy Ganges in person: even a learned mind left speechless as a mature Bull Shark surfaced with the tenacity of a voracious trout taking a fluttering dragonfly off the surface of life and death, smoothened over by the prey’s last breath.
Ah me, the instinctual knowledge inside a shark’s intelligence is painted brightly upon its prowess as an opportunist, not just its mere proficiency to identify opportunity, not unlike the Tiger Shark’s beautiful hue. When the Tiger Shark came upon sailors in WWII, it knew to wait until dark: men chewed in half like salty taffy, heavier still by desolate tears, years lost…. by the Judgment of Nature.
The White shark is relentless, as we swim about in its realm, practically defenseless from its unseen advances, the victim’s chances looking bleak after femoral artery cut in two by serrated teeth.
O Angel, from whence comes this rogue of the sea?
Black-blue eyes piercing through all the space between us-
