More than 20 years ago, conservationist and diver Jim Abernethy discovered the "cuddly" side of large predatory sharks after removing a hook from the jaws of a tiger shark. He has since removed thousands of shark hooks in the warm, clear waters of the Bahamas and has led divers to safely encounter these apex predators with the aim of destigmatising sharks as mindless killers.
