But for reasons unknown to them, each winter, great white sh=rks would leave the food-abundant waters along the US and Mexican west coas= for a sojourn in the middle of nowhere. H=ping to uncover the secret lives of the mysterious great white shark, scien=ists at Stanford University and the Monterey Bay Aquarium in California led=an expedition to what's been dubbed the White Shark Cafe . Their month=ong journey this past April and May helped them discover this area, roughly=the size of Colorado, is actually teeming with "tiny light-sensitiv= creatures so tantalizing that the sharks cross the sea en masse to reach t=em," reports the San Fran=isco Chronicle . The waters are also rich in squid, bigeye tuna, blue an= mako sharks, and other fish. =hitesharkcafe.com Lo=ation of White Shark Cafe. Stanford marine scientist Barbara Block had discovered the sharks'=hidden hangout, the largest known congregation of white sharks, 14 yea=s ago after she started attaching tracking tags to the animals. Over the ye=rs, the data collected revealed that like clockwork the great white sharks w=uld go on an annual pilgrimage in December to this area of the Pacific that=satellite imagery had suggested was barren. The tracking tags helped the ex=edition locate the sharks this past spring and track their movements. They a=so revealed unusual diving behavior that isn't entirely understood y=t. During their stay in the Pacific, the s=arks kept to a surprising schedule. In the daytime, they would dive down to=1,400 feet—to an area known as the mid-water that's on the a=ge of complete darkness and is populated by bioluminescent fish—and=ascend to shallower waters, around 650 feet below the surface, every night.=/p> EFTA_R1_01834847 EFTA02624463 "It's the largest migratio= of animals on Earth—a vertical migration that's timed with=the light cycle," Salvador Jorgensen, expedition leader and Montere= Bay Aquarium scientist, told the Chronicle. "During the day they g= just below where there is light and at night they come up nearer the surfare to warmer, more productive waters under the cover of darkness." While it's believed the sharks ventu=ed down to the darkness to hunt for larger fish drawn to the bioluminescenc=, researchers haven't been able to explain another behavior they ob=erved only in male sharks. During April, the males would each travel i= a V-shape pattern as many as 140 times a day. It's unclear if the b=havior is related to mating or if they are hunting for different species of=fish. Scientists hope to gain some clarity after analyzing the data they co=lected. 2 EFTA_R1_01834848 EFTA02624464
