Never heard of this as well, why sharks? Probably some community started it. I'm curious how do they know, how far the sharks travel through their journey. The outcome could not be immediately known because the type of bet requires patience. I mean, why not bet on horses, its much more interesting because you can get to analyze, and speculate which horse is much stronger and properly trained.
They might put some locator chips in the sharks to determine their travel location and how far they go. It's really a long term betting or maybe they have some rules like who reach this miles first or who reach this place first etc. It's for those who are not contented in betting in existing ways to bet as they keep finding other things that sometimes affects other creatures without them realising that it may have bad effect to them.
This is weird, and it will take a lot of study for us the normal people to predict where the sharks is going, since there is a climate change there's a potential that those Sharks will change their direction. Even if this is not about the Sharks fighting, I don't think I'll bet on this one because its too unpredictable and yes long time betting that can take months or even a year, we don't know. Its getting weird to hear a betting like this, they are indeed looking for a more ways to gamble.
It sounds very funny and weird, because it doesn't understand exactly how shark betting works and but it arouses curiosity.
It seems that following the adventure of a shark in its life includes foraging and will take a while, most likely it will become boring for those who don't want to bet too long.

Maybe after betting on the sharks, that observation will use the other animal.
You mean to bet on the seals, dolphins, whales, etc. that they have tagged? It would be interesting too. Many people are into gambling, and maybe the boredom that came from the pandemic could be alleviated.

They have yet to decide on what they are going to do with their options. In the article, there is still no official thing that happened between MyBookie and Ocearch. Even if they were to sponsor them financially, it seems they still have yet to consider it.

I can't seem to find a more updated article about their partnership. I hope they find a way to make it work. It would be fun to participate.
Yes, that can be an attractive reality show from the animal, and I think that can be another form to get a new entertain to people.
Maybe people can also learn about how they live, where they usually migrate in one season when they can have a place where they can call home and other things.
I think that can invite people to watch the show, and they can also give the money as donations or whatever the name to help that animal.
Yes, it will kill boredom if there is a television show that collaborates with the "gambling casino," which can entertain people.
I think that can touch people who often gamble to place bets on that animal because I guess it is a new idea to gamble using animals but with different views.
But I don't know about that, especially which company that will start that, but if that can start, I guess that can be a new thing for the audience at their home.

This is new, I thought they let those sharks fight each other. How do they make bet with this? they gathered the history of their past migration?

Anyway, this bet is hilarious. what if they go to another route and find themselves another spot that not on the list? I think these guys didn't count the impact of global warming where animals are migrating to the place where they don't really go in the past. Like this Otter that recently come to our country, this is the first time that happened in the last century.

They wont care or whatsoever with global warming yet they are just getting some data into those sharks on where they do migrate.In talks of other route then its surely be part of the lines given out.

Gambling site do only get some data on some source and do make out bets in it.It might not really be that interesting for other or on the ethical side but there are ones who get interested
and do still make bets out of it.

This is somewhat new to me about betting on sharks migration.

Yeah, and now we have to bet on sharks and when they are going to migrate  to the other part? How do people come up with these stupid games? The last time I remember seeing a post over here were people were placing bets on fighting spiders. What are they going to come up with next? Which celebrity is going to die first? Or which country is going to be nuked first?
And why do people even bet on those games? What's wrong with betting in normal games?
Actually those past betting that becomes controversial is Fighting horse,Fighting Dogs and that fighting fish ,what i am missing is Fighting Birds ( not chicken but something like others who really flies)

Now they are upgrading and using sharks?like you i am asking whats wrong with these people,why always provide stupid games using animals when there are already existing gambling that brings fun to everyone.
This is probably because they are getting bored especially with the pandemic and lesser sports event to make bets that's why they are trying to find other "new" ways of betting. Though it's just kinda getting weirder the more they include different animals in betting. Animals do nothing that they are already being the subject for betting just to satisfy people's desires.

I kinda understand how others find it entertaining making bets with other animals, but I don't get what's exciting and entertaining waiting for sharks to migrate just to see where they are going. But for me, as long it's not harming any sharks, then they can spend their money on the things they want.

Having money involved doesn't make it gambling. If I stake other valuable things aside money (like a banana, apple, meat, etc) to prove my skills/reputation or how good and trusted I'm in my predictions and I lose it for not being correct, is that still gambling?
Yes, I think that is still gambling because you risk something, and no matter if you win or lose, you still gamble.
And no matter what involving in that risk, that is gambling.

The idea of this is great just because they Don’t have my complete control with the outcome, and it’s probably for the best for the environment. I have no idea that this existed, but it’s cool.

The Ocearch.org Is not only for a great white shark but also for other marine animals. They have tagged the animals so they could monitor them.  As checking the site, they have 416 animals tagged. I think this deserves more exposure, and just because of the data, you could get off from it.

I hope this experiment for the gambling part would be beneficial entirely for the ocearch.org
Maybe after betting on the sharks, that observation will use the other animal.
If that is for the observation, I think that can be acceptable, but I don't know about the money involved in that betting.
Maybe if that organization needs help, they can ask for donations for the government or people who want to donate to those institutions, and not using gambling to ask for the donation.
I think that will be a good reason to search for help in the donation because I am sure that many people will donate to help that animal, and I am sure that the amount of the money that will donate will also be larger.
But if they think that betting on the animal to ask people donations is a good idea, they can continue to do that to attract more people to gamble.
But they need to explain to people about the purposes behind that betting.

Could be a good idea, as long as the bettors are not gambling. The word gambling is probably what triggered the guilt feeling here:
Quote
"But others worry about the ethical implications.."
How would you want responsible & skilled people to participate and still call them gamblers?


This is ok if it's about correctly predicting the sharks migration in sustainable/safe manner and to help the animals.
Not a gamble at all but since there is money involved you can still tagged this one as gambling, not unless all the money collected will all be used and donated to protect the natural resources and the natural habitat of a wild animal. Predicting the migration could be more difficult, like you have to know where the sharks are going down deeper.

Data are available to the public since the Ocearch inception so not new if these sharks are being tracked. That's what they served for.

I believed these areas are also tracked by the authorities in case of unauthorized or illegal activities.
Good to know that it is available on public, I thought it was just only for those authorities. I think what's hindrance in this matter if Ocearch will really make them still do the betting because reading the article I see there's no light said there they've continued. Or I am just missing something?

though i found this title  sounds stupid but the whole thing is cool,imagine Migration of Sharks to be for betting?i love the idea at least in this part there is no fighting and the sharks will stay safe without being bothered by forcing them to bite each others .

have no chance so far betting on this but will surely try sooner.
It seems it is illegal and the gambling site was stopped on June 17 this year because the owner of the white shark didn't know the betting event on that sites. Good thing, it was now stopping their operation.

It's sad to hear that it was already closed,and yeah this is illegal if the owner has no idea of what is happening outside of His knowledge for the shark.

This is a very strange betting to me. I have heard in the past of strange betting like spider betting but nothing like this.

This goes to show that a lot of gamblers are kind of bored with the situation right now. There seems to be less and less sports to bet on so they end up on whale shark speculation.

That is actually funny but also a bit amazing how odds makers are showing their creative and imaginable side coming up with this kind of speculative betting on something wild.

I don't understand how they make odds on the shark, this shark will not fighting with each other and it is impossible to shark that they will fight to each other.

Betting on wildlife animals are strickly prohibited in most country, even though a betting site has a license there is a group of wildlife protection that will interact on this kind of business.

animal betting is not new . when theres animal that are fighting and people see it , they found that entertaining and in thier minds they say that what if i will introdce this to others and make bets with them . i read the first post and found out that they are not really fighting but its okay there are still betting that are not based on fighting and they are much better because no one will get harmed .

the pics you posted are sharks ? they look like a crocodile or a lizard to me and sharks dont also get out of the water .
Yeah animal betting that include spider, cock fight, pitbull underground fight, and therr are other countries that are betting in an animal fight.

Usually, betting in animals involve in fighting and winning is through when other side could not be able to fight or wi get killed in action. This is why that some environmentolist are doing something about this cruelty against the people that do like to bet.

I know that gamblers are very initiative to get some ways to bet and since there are other ways in betting through the use of technology hopefully that gamblers will tend to focus on these kind of betting and not on betting to animals that fight except OP stated about shark bet which is very friendly to environmental and to raise awareness to all people around the world why we should care the animals around.
