Tiger shark swallows iPhone during Bahamas tourism trip

A tiger shark named Jitterbug accidentally swallowed an iPhone during a tourism excursion in the Bahamas. The phone, belonging to the excursion's captain, recorded footage as it traveled through the shark's mouth before being spat out unharmed. The incident was captured by Texas-based photographer Ken Kiefer, who was on the tour. Jitterbug briefly chewed on the phone but quickly realized it was not food and dropped it to the ocean floor. This event highlights the unique behaviors of tiger sharks, which are monitored by tour groups like Dolphin Dream Team. Despite fears of shark attacks, they remain rare, with the U.S. accounting for a significant portion of unprovoked bites.
