TIBURÓN TORO: DEL MIEDO A LA ESPERANZA PLAYENSE | José Urbina | TEDxUPP


the most transcendental border that I

I met in my life

it was this once through this

border

my world my cge already expanded

tremendously there one can find

So big creatures with ships

huge spaces

extremely old and even that

the invading dinosaurs and one when

is there I got in touch with a

very close contact

eye eye with a lot of

creatures

you are seeing these images

you can say go to these images are

taken by a professional photographer

who knows where

but all these creatures are in

our waters were photographs

taken by me and I’m not a photographer

professional once you are

there you can see the ones that deal closely

that maybe they pay attention to that

the lobsters have tabs can

see a snail and realize how their

eyes look at them it is very rare to be in

direct contact vision with a snail

of the very small unique creatures

that would dominate the world albeit a little

more like octopuses octopuses have

three hearts and blue blood and ride

more rare are they able to emit to give of

expand with the environment not only

changing the color of your skin but

also the texture of your skin and everything

this is in our waters

we have a huge biodiversity there

completely and misunderstood creatures

like for example this brunette I know that

many of you in when you saw it

They said my mommy thinks she’s

point to attack but actually the

brunette is breathing

well breathe open mouth nguyen water

they eject it from the sides and there it is

where they absorb oxygen in the water

is breathing is really a bug

extremely tender and nice

my friend there is that the little ones very

pretty

agathe unique as it weighs po

which is endemic to cozumel free

that many have heard talk as in

your plan with this is your plate and you can

see in any night investment to

putting on a motorcycle was very strange and

of course and creative that we have all

learned to love like a turtle the

turtle at some time was in

danger of extinction and we organize ourselves

and we protect it and now the whole world

labor market and its population is close to

recuperate

[Music]

This region

[Music]

do not

when this movie came out people

I was afraid to go to the bathroom I did not want

have nothing to do with water and this

poses a lot of fears

irrational and when fear and

ignorance go hand in hand

were extremely deep and reach

master everything you can reach

say well and are now seeing a

Cancun image saw the beaches

any of you imagine bikini and

with a daisy are remembering

projecting a trip and everything is going to

change when I tell them you’re

little black figures that can hardly be seen there

are sharks at that time many of

you have thought I will not put

Juan Cancún never in my life when in

actually the logical conclusion is I have

been on the water in kabul

nothing happened to me there were the

sharks the sharks is nothing

I know you still do not believe me but it’s like that

really

the goals have always been there

around there in the sea is something

normal technical assistance please the

sharks was always there

the sea is your house in the winters

the shark is approaching the coasts

the female bull shark is approaching

mainly the area of the riviera

maya where and mangroves because it is

looking for where to have their young

we have always known this and with this

I want to tell you the first time that I

I saw a bull shark had a little

time to arrive at playa del carmen

I was guiding group of divers by

first time four people a family

mom dad two little ones all very

tender when he is not guiding

back and you have your people here

is showing them things in reef

suddenly I see behind them the

unmistakable silhouette of a shark

bull and more terror and c

but I was not afraid of the shark I had

fear of the reaction of parents says

the father to grab hold on to

hits the shark to protect its

children

the mother is going to shoot out

surface who knows what will happen

so I tried very professional way

ask my taste that they put on

knees deserve a shark but in

what makes all this the shark is

had gone

then he was going to tell us friends that he

stand up and in that moment of the

mother’s eyes grow

the shark is behind me and if

it was mine and it gave us a twist and

they were lost to blue when we finished

investment to this day itself

I say it makes my skin chinita when

when this with we finished the investment

the children had no words

enough nor speed to say it

they were like crazy father and mother

had a smile that did not fit in

face

I know that for them as for me that

day marked a before and after the

mother on the way back looked at me

and I said that the pp if you had said

today that I was going to be at sea ​​with a

shark and my children and did not enter nor

crazy and I did not remember being afraid was

so majestic so beautiful to be there

so much peace was to see it nothing around me

that I did not remember being afraid

knowing this we organized ourselves we started

to bring people to see the sharks in

this place in playa del carmen are

the characteristics probably

best in the world for a matter of

visibility for a matter of

temperature

it’s not a matter of time we can download

and see them the pulls started to

accumulate in this area concentrate

because the fishermen when they returned

from sea

they threw their fish heads there

visits and

he does not like a free snack then

knowing this we could go to

there and it’s very nice

really an incredible experience

people come from all over the world to swim

with them photographers become

completely eyes

You can go with your dad with your daughter

see them then it can be inclusion

very romantic experience

[Laughs]

there were people who even went under the

water and a completely empirical form

he started attracting them with bait there was no

Up to three cans of tuna were taken and

it really was something that could come back

crazy run video please

good yes it is a very nice experience

if my brother is here I could only

tell him he was with me there and it’s

fantastic until we hit the

reality

the sharks were concentrating on this

place

a fisherman said man there are sharks and

one last night went and killed all the

sharks when we were

searching

I want to remind you that at the time

the sharks are terrified and

now and with impression and this happens all

the weeks every day

playa del carmen on and island women in

puerto morelos all around

this was the first hammerhead shark that

I saw in my life and I saw him dead in a

boat in punta sam

this happens in porto about sharks

bull tigers and I know that many of

you without that unintentionally follows me

believe that a shark in the sea is

terrifying but it is much more

terrifying error a supermarket

they have a very important role in the sea

some of you who have eaten

whiting of toothed bread in some

suchlike time perhaps

they ate one of these because the

fishermen take sharks and shorten them

the essence of sharks is already lost

today we know that these sharks are

protected

much more a shark alive than one

dead is a tourist resource that is

protect learning this in playa del

Carmen after this experience that

We had organized to organize bags

it’s extremely complex because everyone

we are very good at what we do

we have a great fortune mexico all

we are very good and our points of

view are tremendously strong then

be in a meeting talking about trying

of reaching an agreement of what is it

what we had to do was very difficult

we do not all get along well but in

some time we understood that the

supreme survival tool

it’s communication and like stone

rosetta we use honesty

We learned to trust us the same

I do not quite like it, but I trust

you and so we started talking and we created

a manual of good practices in the

which now we can have this activity

in a protected area

we have managed to protect sharks

in a strip that goes from point

Maroma up to evil and all the width that

separates us from cozumel partners 70

kilometers long by 19 wide

it’s not much but 2025 sharks towers and

Every year half of us visit

she is pregnant and they are born between

12 and 18 pups do the calculation of the

number of sharks that we have

protected for almost six years

we are doing it very well

activity was divided into two parts

observation where you can not go down and see

a shark and attraction and this time

is a fully trained person

with a suit that protects him that organizes

this activity with a talk

informative and you to all its uses

ordered not only protection of the

Russians but protection of sharks

we have learned a lot we have been able

to be witnesses

very closely so close that we can see

even how his teeth fall

when they bite the sharks they change the

teeth continuously is a strategy

evolutionary we have marked the sharks and

we have put receivers that range from

chinchorro in front of majagual up

cancun

well we have learned a lot from

where they move and especially locate

the areas where they will have their young

to protect them

all this information we have

diffused in children in schools in

different events in planetariums in

ted practices we have taken to the

children to the beach to learn

better because they understand better why it is

so important to protect our seas

we have agreements with universities that

they help us spread this information

and they help us protect clean beaches and

the sea

we train practically all

guides of the riviera maya museum

all these guides lead to search

daily thousands of abuses and little to

little we are teaching people the

importance of a live shark to

lifeguard to the general population

because you do not have to be a museum

that will assume that lear that lives in

the sea to understand the importance of

October live so you can do

something to protect it

We try to improve and update standards

and regulations to achieve this own

this profession is more effective

we spread everywhere with what

we have learned in playa del carmen and in

the surroundings the dive centers in

Internet

this information but especially the

most important people of this project

are the captains and the fishermen who

They were in Playa del Carmen from before

this is a small group are hundreds

all these people maybe in a moment

scotti bronx but today they have put the

t-shirt have understood how important

is for themselves in sharks

I live and protect them they are the

paladins

they are the heroes of Christ

they understood at some point that

needs became

traditions brought us to this point

all the decisions that took our

past they brought us to this point today

and believe me, the future is not a good place

it does not look very good we have to start

change we have to make decisions

to rescue and protect our world

and this I know very well why we

we have tired of saying that children

they are the future and radial children are the

present are here

they also if you are your son

they are here and they suffer

consequences of what we are doing

to the planet and above all they have the

be able to change today and this I know very

well why the first tumor or hammer

alive that I saw my son brought and I

full of hope

thank you very much

[Applause]
