'25 Years of Shark Week' Infographic Dishes a Heavy History

— August 13, 2012 — Eco
The '25 Years of Shark Week' covers a lengthy and jaw-dropping history of Discovery Channel genius known to most as 'Shark Week.'

As a seven-day show of appreciation for these roaming underwater beasts, this thrilling piece of documentary is the closest most of us will get to studying the powerful predators (no complaints here). From an outsider's point of view, this fascination may be plain sick -- why would any sort of prey watch, with excitement, a week long spot that details exactly how strong and majestic their powerful predators are? The reason is murky, but the Discovery Channel program is obviously doing something right seeing as they first tested the waters from the Shark Cage in 1987 and is still going strong!

Trend Themes
1. Shark Week Fan Culture - Opportunity for brands to tap into the passionate and dedicated fanbase of Shark Week through merchandise, events, and experiences.
2. Environmental Conservation Awareness - Potential for organizations to leverage the popularity of Shark Week to raise awareness about the importance of marine predator conservation and the need for sustainable practices.
3. Educational Entertainment - Opportunity for media companies and educators to create engaging and informative content about marine predators that educates and entertains a wide audience.
Industry Implications

2. Merchandise and Licensing - Opportunity for brands to capitalize on the popularity of Shark Week by creating and selling merchandise tied to the event, such as clothing, toys, and collectibles.
3. Eco-tourism - Potential for travel companies and destinations to develop specialized tours and experiences centered around marine predator observation and conservation.
