Topic: Did anyone bet on the sharks yet ? (Read 823 times)
^ I must agree that bettors sometimes get bored and they will do weird things to get rid of this boredom but if betting with sharks I totally disagree for it will be hard to find out the results and how reliable it will be. Aside from the expenses in tracking these sharks there will other things that they need to consider and will also cost a lot and the organizer will definitely in need of profit to compensate for these expenses which IMO will question the credibility of the people behind the betting event with sharks. Somehow we still cannot stop these people from doing these because it is our instinct to find and try things which we haven't experienced yet, but I hope if they will pursue this no animal will be exploited for someone's interest.
During my 5 years in the world of gambling, only recently have I heard that there is a bet on the sharks, which sounds unique and interesting.
I want to try it too, out of curiosity. Not because I want to get profit from betting on the sharks, but if I win I consider a bonus. I read the article
in the opening post about betting on the great white sharks, it can increase our knowledge regarding the migration journey from the great white
sharks. So there are positive things we can get from betting on the sharks.

It's the kind of weird bet I just heard about, I've never made a weird bet like this..
If betting on the shark's success, we might see another animal betting that will be different than other animals. But I wonder what will be the result of the betting on the sharks. Maybe many people will curious to join on that betting and place their bet.
I am curious too about the final result (who be the winner). maybe later we will see strange betting bets such as the migration of flamingos or penguins "LOL"..

Humans can find many things to gamble, even for the easy thing because humans are creative If betting on the shark's success, we might see another animal betting that will be different than other animals. But I wonder what will be the result of the betting on the sharks. Maybe many people will curious to join on that betting and place their bet.
I haven't bet on sharks so far and I have mixed feelings about it, don't know exactly what to think. It seems that humans find all possible options to bet on, just for the betting purpose
Personally I would never bet on any kind of animals fight, I truly judge that, and although this betting on sharks is different somehow I'm not very keen to it.

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.
Would you then call forex, stock, precious metals trading, etc gambling? The traders clearly risk money to bet on price of currencies and commodities.
If those are gambling, then lot of other things I didn't mention here could easily be classified as gambling.
I hope you are not basing you definition/meaning on online dictionary definitions. They certainly can be proven wrong
But if you have skills and are willing to learn more about trading, that will not be the same as gambling because you can analyze the market, and you can find the right way to enter the market and sell the coins when it increases.
I would agree with what @dunfida says that will depend on how we approach those things.
But we can not blame people if they call gambling because what we think will not be the same as them.
But we might agree that gambling has money involved with those things, and we risk that money to get the other money.
Geez, the meaning of gambling can be different between one person to another person.
Let people decide if that is gambling or not because they will have their opinion regarding gambling and accept what they said about gambling will be good for both people.
Agreed. I think the problem I have with this is the confusion in the the true meaning of the word. People tend to think that all bettors are gamblers and all gamblers are bettors. That confusion is what I usually disagree with. I have bet on lottery, stock, currencies etc in the past but I don't consider some of them a gamble,except maybe my bet on stock and some currencies. I bet with what I can afford to lose except on the stock & few currencies.
I would consider the stock a gamble and not my childhood bet on lottery and a kid game.
Well, it's depends on what people are betting on about animals. It's not like animal fight or other violent betting on animals. The Op clearly stated that the bet or prediction is about the animal migration. I think it's a good thing they're predicting that as long as there are set boundaries or rules that must not be crossed in the course of the bets.
I believe people could predict the migration fairly well with the right information or knowledge. Such people could be talents anyone who study or is interested in shark migration could depend on.
If they're getting hurt, I won't put my money there. Instead, I will spend it somewhere.
I did some research but couldn't find anything related to it.
I suggest you put more info here regarding the white shark. If it looks entertaining, then I will think about it.
They are not getting hurt. You are not betting on shark fights, the bookie was taking bets on their migration routes. Every year sharks migrate to search for areas with more food and for mating reasons. That is what the bookie was offering odds for. What routes they would take, when, how fast they will get there, etc.I did some research but couldn't find anything related to it.
I suggest you put more info here regarding the white shark. If it looks entertaining, then I will think about it.
It is all explained in the article linked in the OP.
No wonder humans can think of sharks being used for gambling, because humans have minds that other creatures don't have.
But I am not interested in trying to bet on the sharks, because for a long time I have been unable to enjoy gambling related to
animals. Everyone has their own taste, but I would not forbid or blame if there were people who enjoyed betting on the sharks.
I don't like also these kind of betting, from live chickens, spiders and now into sharks even they don't involve fighting or it was just a mere game of who will be first it's still not good to see those creatures being played, it will be better if will just focus in doing gambling by ourselves thru casino betting or in other gaming platforms. I don't know why they enjoy it too much and finds thrill on doing it. But I am not interested in trying to bet on the sharks, because for a long time I have been unable to enjoy gambling related to
animals. Everyone has their own taste, but I would not forbid or blame if there were people who enjoyed betting on the sharks.
I don't even think sharks can be used for gambling, but as long as it doesn't hurt the sharks, bet on the sharks go ahead.
Humans are unique, everything can be at stake. Maybe bet on the sharks can be an alternative to gambling, if we are bored
with the existing gambling games. Because more and more choices of gambling games make us more entertained.

No wonder next time it is Crocs or Aligator is what they will bring to arena to fight.

So apparently I came across a very interesting news : People are now betting on The Great White Sharks.
It's not violent, it's not like Fighting or something but rather betting on their migration journeys.

People think this would save and at the same time positively impact the conversation of the sharks .
Adding these two is certainly a very different things and it is the first time that I have ever heard of thing like this.
I really liked how they are trying to engage people during pandemic through gambling to do something positive.

With most public sports out of commission because of the coronavirus pandemic, the betting market has been thin in recent months.

Not just the shark getting hurt, also those who wish to take big risk (gamblers) on such bets.
I prefer not to have this go on if what they choose is to gamble rather than bet responsibily or safely. Gambling shouldn't be encouraged atall... only safe and responsible bets. Good bettors should be able to predict the sharks journey without taking big financial risk.

It can be considered depending on how you do approach it but on general theres a fine line between those things.Take for example on doing trading where
a thing hing that can really be profitable if done correctly which your skills and analysis will work but if you done nothing between the two then you're just simply making some gamble. It might not really be literally but basing on what you are doing then you are definitely doing it.Its just a matte on what are your
views towards those things.I cant say he's totally wrong with his in point yet he do really had a valid point.
Ofcourse! It still boils down on taking big risks on bets. If you are a skilled/successful bettor, specifically a bettor who is consistently successful, you can't be considered a gambler nor can be considered to be taking big risk. Gambling is simply taking big risk, whether in governance, health, betting, foods, etc. A stock/currency trader who takes big risk in stock trading is a gambler while a player who takes little occasional risk on dice bets is not.

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. 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.
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)And why do people even bet on those games? What's wrong with betting in normal games?
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.
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.

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

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.
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

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.
Could be a good idea, as long as the bettors are not gambling. The word gambling is probably what triggered the guilt feeling here:
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.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.
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?
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? I believed these areas are also tracked by the authorities in case of unauthorized or illegal activities.
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.

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)And why do people even bet on those games? What's wrong with betting in normal games?
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.

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.

This is new, I thought they let those sharks fight each other. How do they make bet with this?
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 .
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.

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.

Kinda weird but the weirdest was this people betting on it but who am I to be a wet blanket over what they've enjoyed on whatever they bets on. Well, whatever the result I hope that by this event there will be a donation to be made up for those sharks besides they are near on extinction.
Upon reading the article I saw some positive impact on this and I say it's not that bad besides those sharks we're not harm at all. But hoping this wouldn't lead to negative things like exploitation of those sharks since many would know now where they are.
"Others saw additional benefits to such a team-up. It could lead to an especially positive outcome if MyBookie “offered donations to shark researchers”, who work in a field that is often in need of more financial support, says Jasmin Graham, a marine biologist at Mote Marine Laboratory."

If the bet is for searching donation to help the sharks, I think that will be a good idea because people can donate their money while enjoying betting something different from the other things. So in this matter, no winner, but the money will be to the sharks. People can buy whatever they choose, while they also donate.
If that is a success, perhaps, another bet will be starting for the animal that almost extinction, so we can help the animal to continue to survive, and they can lives better.
But still, feeling not right to bet on that sharks is on me, and I think that I don't have to use the animal to bet. As you said, there are still many online sports betting or other gambling games that we can bet. But that will come up to every people to bet on the animal.
I don't see and understand how's that betting becomes a concern. Reading fully the article and looking at the whole, I see there's actually nothing wrong there. Let's just make it simple and not too technical.
Well then, every people have different approaches so I got the picture.
But hoping this wouldn't lead to negative things like exploitation of those sharks since many would know now where they are.

No shark was harmed but I don't like how the game result was provider because the race result was provider by a third party which was said to be a nonprofit company which has been tracking the animals’ movements for years and despite no animals are harmed what about the team involved in fixing the device used to track the animals.
Honestly, I don't like the idea of shark gambling, and horse, dog race gambling is still ok by me.
Honestly, I don't like the idea of shark gambling, and horse, dog race gambling is still ok by me.
Odds for shark racing also aren't going to be added overnight to providers, it's way too exotic to track and they definitely need to invent specialized technology to weigh each shark movement into the odds, and even then there will likely only be Win-Lose-Draw choices made, because other metrics only really exist for mainstream sports. Like you can put sensors on a playing field and track the players' movements and that's probably how it's done for football, basketball, American football etc. Even esports betting only have these three odds, not sure about horse racing though because I never bet on that.
So I woulsn't be surprised if only Mybookie continues to have odds for shark racing, assuming they're even allowed to resume those operations.
I don't think most gamblers want to bet in markets they don't understand (like this one).
Some might not really much interested but there are people who do love exotic kind of bets just like this one.I dont know on whats the set-up about migration of sharks and
on how winner to be determined.
complaints then they would continue.
I'm among those that dont find the race interesting. The race winner are determine through the data provided by Ocearchon how winner to be determined.
complaints then they would continue.
I am not a fan of any forms of animal betting even horse, cockfighting, etc. Here in our country, some people gamble with spiders, people find different things to gamble on. If this kind of betting will take place sharks will have to be injected trackers to be able to accomplish the goal of the race. I don't enjoy any gambling forms that includes animals being harmed.
No shark were harmed due to the online bookmaker. the sharks in question already have a tracking device which were put by the conservationist to track their migration route long before the bookmaker decided to make a bet out of their migration route.

Though I can say that I am interested in knowing the said game and will try it if in case I can easily understand the mechanics but the problem is the other gamblers whether they have time to study the mechanics before they will start betting.

But I don't want to bet on the sharks or other animal betting because I am not feeling right to bet on them. I think that better to bet on sports or other gambling games, and I think many people will do the same. But if you are still interested in that, you can try it on.
Animal betting is seems abusive especially if they are trained to fight or do to activities out of their will, same with these sharks though they are not trained to do it or harm but if they will put some chips or locator inside of them that may affect their system it can be harmful. However if it's just lke a betting for fun and they will not be irresponsible to do any harm for the sharks and just keep the sharks do what they wanted then it's fine. But I don't see any fun betting with animals there are still online sports betting, casino games and live casino games to play with.If they put some chips or locators inside the sharks to study their behavior, that will not be a problem because they want to know how the sharks can survive in the wild ocean and how their lives. I am okay with that because that can help us research their lives, and we can get more information about the sharks' lives.

When it comes to operation then it will continue and similar animal type of betting will surely exist as this pandemic continue.Just like on what others
said where these are unexpected kind of betting.

The great white sharks fall unders the endangered species category as they are hunted mainly for their fins and teeth. But how can betting on their migration probably help them. Conservationists and environmentalist have been raising their voice for so many years now and they have not been able to stop this illegal fishing how can the community raise an alarm by betting on their migration pattern. I think it is another way to lure gamblers into betting on something new.

Even though I am an animal lover, I am afraid of sharks. Maybe because it is influenced by Hollywood films that always make sharks
the fiercest predators in the sea. Just imagining it gives me goosebumps, let alone having to bet on sharks. It's clear I will avoid that,
after all, humans are always finding new ways to play gambling. But I didn't think sharks could be used as a gambling bet. Please feel
free to those who are interested to bet on the sharks, as long as no fighting and no violence. This can be an alternative gambling,
for those who are bored with the current gambling games.

reading through the article I'm glad that the conservationist is not immediately throwing the Idea to the trash and is actually thinking of negotiation and possible team up with the online bookmaker. although reading through the article it seems that this isn't the first time an online bookmaker did this. also, just like what was said in the article the Idea of betting to shark migration could be a great way to introduce people or make them interested in nature(specifically animal migration) but there are still concerns that should be heavily considered before going forward with the idea.
For people who are interested in nature will surely love this or will really be interested on these kind of bets.This is my first time on encountering on making out some bets on sharks migration which is really very unusual and i didnt expect that it would be recognized to be included for something where people can make bet on.Good thing is that theres no shark that had been
harmed on this one unlike any other animal fight betting.
Though MyBookie representatives had contacted the nonprofit via Facebook earlier in June, a formal meeting about a collaboration had yet to occur when the virtual sportsbook debuted the event, without Ocearch’s permission or knowledge.
it is just sad that the online bookmaker didn't properly ask for permission to use Ocearch data to use for their online bookmaker. 
I think it is not possible for us to bet on White Sharks.As far as I know they are the most dangerous kind of sharks out there.And beside this I am never a fan of animal fighting or sea creatures fighting or whatever creature without logic to bet on them.
You do just make out some post without even trying to read on whats been written on op, its clear that this isn't something in talks about sea creature fighting.and if you do have spent some time on clicking that link above then you can see this:
"invited gamblers to place wagers on the summer migration patterns of nine great white sharks. "
which is clearly stated that bettors would able to place wagers about migration patterns.Dont continue on posting up shit which is unusual for a Legendary member.
Always read up and do reply on topic always.
I never really thought that this kind of betting would occur as a replacement for the lack of sports events due to the pandemic. For me, this is something new but I wonder if bettors and gamblers would find interest in this kind of betting with sharks. Unlike the usual betting, I just find it not exciting or anticipating so I'm not sure if a lot of bettors will be interested. On the other hand, it's good to know that there are also some benefits to this for the sharks, not just making money out of it.

The initial thought that I have upon seeing this is their bout against the Orcas that have been hunting them as of late for their livers. Turns out I was just a savage lad and so into it lol. This is great for awareness IMO, and if some of the proceeds for the bet comes to the aid of environmental protection and the conservation of these misunderstood creatures then I'm in on the game. The thing though is that mostly these types of bets are just created for the benefit of the bookie and the gambler, with little regard to the event or creatures that are being wagered on.

Actually it's just a way to help people focus on the shark conservation:P
A lot of comments here ... I wish you guys would read the article first. It's actually positive for them.
A lot of comments here ... I wish you guys would read the article first. It's actually positive for them.
Even if that is for the conservation of the shark's life, I still don't want to bet. I think that it is not right for me to use an animal as an object. Maybe we can observe them and using the shark for research, but not for betting. Maybe that is positive, but I hope that they don't involve money inside that.
I think there is nothing wrong with betting on this gambling, even if with a small amount of money and not too much you can do it, make bets like when you are gambling at other game venues, fun is the main thing when making this kind of bet.
Yes, there is nothing wrong with you, even if you only use small money. But I don't think the other people will agree. That shark is an animal that breathes, and we need to help them to survive. But we don't have to use the money to bet for them.
It is just your feeling. We do not harm them at all. Just make a prediction whether they might migrate on the next season. Nothing to do with ethics in this case. PETA can even touch us.
But I still feel not right to use an animal to bet
Making a prediction is okay, but only if you don't use it to research the animal.
The article was published almost 3 months ago and since then there was no updates to it. I think they have left their bets on the sharks too
People can find anything to bet on as long as there is a probability of two things to happen.
If you would give gamblers to bet if the next pandemic would be similar to coronavirus then I am sure there would be thousands of people placing their bets on this too
I think we should let the sharks live in their peace and let them migrate themselves before there comes a movie on how gamblers made huge money betting on sharks .

This is really good cause it might help to conserve the ocean creatures. I am quite interested in making a bet like this. However, MyBookie nay not accept cryptocurrencies as a payment method.

That news channels and a few more UK based news channels are well known to make propaganda news which are often directed at emotionally moving topics or just plain propaganda. So take it with a bit of a salt.
Yeah I do feel like this channel does not provide real information. There are too many ads running around the page which I consider as a sign of shitty news. But who knows. Maybe there are truly people who want to change the wind for something more attractive. Rich people do make many weird bet though 
I don't know if that thing is available, but if that so, I don't know if people will try to bet on the sharks because maybe they will try to bet on other games. But I don't want to bet on the sharks or other animal betting because I am not feeling right to bet on them. I think that better to bet on sports or other gambling games, and I think many people will do the same. But if you are still interested in that, you can try it on.
I think there is nothing wrong with betting on this gambling, even if with a small amount of money and not too much you can do it, make bets like when you are gambling at other game venues, fun is the main thing when making this kind of bet. 
I don't think they read the article, they just give opinion without knowing what the topic is all about. It's good thing some bookmakers are able to think
something like this maybe they could also do in other animals maybe some endangered species to help with their conservation.
ya.ya.yo!

I think it is not possible for us to bet on White Sharks.As far as I know they are the most dangerous kind of sharks out there.And beside this I am never a fan of animal fighting or sea creatures fighting or whatever creature without logic to bet on them.
No fighting
No violence
It's actually just the opposite.
Sharks usually follow a course , a directed path, to find food/mates etc... So the betting is to essentially:
1) spread some positive news about sharks/ their conversation/ make people more involved
2) people are getting the live view , making it more or less interesting for them.
3) without killing an animal , you are helping it save and at the same time it's like watching your own personal discovery channel with probability of winning.

Actually it's just a way to help people focus on the shark conservation:P
A lot of comments here ... I wish you guys would read the article first. It's actually positive for them.

Really came to me as a little surprise about reading this news. Never thought something like this could also happen but finally for gambling one can gamble on anything and everything and this is just an example of it. Got to heard about this for the first time and see what else is in store to it.
People are betting on political and social events for quite a time now. But I think betting on natural objects and beings are not a good idea.
It would have an unhealthy pressure on the nature and that human interference may affect how the animals behave.
A person who have a good bet on a route could go into any level to turn the sharks route to have a win for him if his reward is larger than the expenditure.

so its sharks as in shark that we see on the water but first thing that came to my brain is sharks simillar to whales , the one that manipulates the crypto market but i think the one that im talking about can also be featured in the betting world . on the other hand the shark that you are talking about is not cleared if its legal or not , i didnt visit the link yet so i dont know the full story but how can this save the sharks ? or have a positive impact when the animals are caught out and forced to do certain actions. its a no for me sorry , i dont support this kind of betting

As stated on the OP, the betting on Great White Sharks are not about fighting or any animal cruelty but its more on the migration journey maybe on what place they will be on their next food hunting. I'm not a fan of this as well, and I have no idea how the Animal behave especially on a vast and deep ocean. I don't feel any entertainment here, well bettors must understand this first before putting some money. 
I'm not even aware that this kind of betting exist, now I can tell we can put a bet on anything in this world, lol.
Honestly I believe there are only few who are interested on betting on sharks, that's the reason it's not popular, when I saw this thread I was thinking you are talking about a shark or whales in gambling.

It's not violent, it's not like Fighting or something but rather betting on their migration journeys.

First time I read about this, sounds like a nice marketing gag. I like Sharks a lot, so could be fun to bet on them. But I never used MyBookie, actually I never heard of them before. They must be pretty new in the field. The reviews on trustpilot ( 185 Reviews - Bad - 1.4 / 5 Stars) are not the greatest so I would do some more research before depositing any money on their site. Anyone has some experience with them?
Sorry but I have no idea on how the betting will do and does not able to get info also about this kind of betting.
It is a good sense actually that while people are betting, people will become conscious also on the sea environment and to establish on how to take care of the environment not only just betting but at the same time to conserve the nature.
This will also serve as an awareness especially to people that are doing illegal activities in regards of these sharks or even other sea creatures under the sea.

See..
Humans will always have something to bet. While not many sports betting is available, we are trying to bet on the white sharks. Next time, we will bet on the other things.
Gambling will never end because the human will search for another thing to bet, and I am sure that we will use many things to make money from gambling. But I don't bet on that white sharks, and I am not sure if people will interest to bet on that white sharks.

It's funny how gambling is finding its space in almost everything lol. But it's a real good thing to engage gambling in serious issues like these, because as more people engage, they will automatically talk about it and pay more attention to prevent these species from going extinct (even if it's for their own selfish reasons).
I would love if there was a possibility of gambling on climate change, like betting on "how much time will we take to make the climate good or like lower the temperature by x degree", then we all will focus on building the climate again!

It doesn't look like it's still ongoing though. From what I read and understood, the bet was temporarily stopped, and negotiations are underway about continuing the gambling session for the sharks. Didn't really make me interested though.
Still, an odd type of bet that is to say. I'm rather curious though if someone ever started a bet about ants and their livelihoods, like place two groups of ants in a new place and then see who builds a nest faster than the other or something like that.

Others saw additional benefits to such a team-up. It could lead to an especially positive outcome if MyBookie “offered donations to shark researchers”, who work in a field that is often in need of more financial support, says Jasmin Graham, a marine biologist at Mote Marine Laboratory.
This line especially shows that they're basically selling the sharks to the gamblers for money. Not that they are put into harm or anything though, but I hardly doubt a lot of people studying the sharks would agree to such a notion that they seemingly sell sharks as a public amusement when they themselves are the rangers to protect those sharks or something like that.

That news channels and a few more UK based news channels are well known to make propaganda news which are often directed at emotionally moving topics or just plain propaganda. So take it with a bit of a salt.
I am not completely denying that they are making up BS, but just think about it. How much would it need from the humans to keep track of these sharks movements? A lot of work to tag and mark them and keep them afloat and use that for determining who is winning or so.
TBH, this seems to be a shilling attempt for that specific site mentioned in the article. But I agree that gamblers often get bored to get rid of their boredom do some eerie and weird things to bet on.
Not a fan of such things though.

People think this would save and at the same time positively impact the conversation of the sharks .
Adding these two is certainly a very different things and it is the first time that I have ever heard of thing like this.
I really liked how they are trying to engage people during pandemic through gambling to do something positive.

With most public sports out of commission because of the coronavirus pandemic, the betting market has been thin in recent months. Wagering on sharks could give gamblers an outlet, and some conservationists wonder if it might result in positive press for oft-maligned great whites. But others worry about the ethical implications of merging these two disparate pursuits – and a tumultuous week of conversations reveals that MyBookie might have bungled its first foray into shark speculating.
