Great White Shark Takes Bite at Kelp & Incredible Slow Motion Footage

Despite the cold water temperatures of the winter in Southern California, many white sharks are still found along the coast. In what is probably one of the most unique sequences I've captured thus far, I filmed a large juvenile white shark seemingly biting at floating kelp. It appears to be eating the kelp in a few clips. But why?

Additionally, I share some of my best slow motion footage of the month in 4K resolution.
