A 'wild throupling' between one female and two male leopard sharks has been caught on camera for the first time in history. A University of the Sunshine Coast researcher documented the rare shark mating sequence in the wild. Dr Lassauce, a marine biologist and ecologist who collaborates with Noumea’s Aquarium des Lagons recalled what happened moments after the risqué moment: “I told my colleague to take the boat away to avoid disturbance and I started waiting on the surface, looking down at the sharks almost motionless on the sea floor. “I waited an hour, freezing in the water, but finally they started swimming up. It was over quickly for both males, one after the other. The first took 63 seconds, the other 47. “Then the males lost all their energy and lay immobile on the bottom while the female swam away actively.” The team celebrated the scientific and conservation significance of his video as soon as he swam back to the boat. #LeopardShark #Sealife #QueerAnimals
