This video was shot by Mike Etnier at Makanrushi Island, Russia in July 2008. This is underwater footage of one of several large schools of Atka mackerel that were feeding on krill at the surface. See "Atka mackerel and krill" for surface footage of one of the schools of fish and underwater footage of the krill. For more details on the feeding aggregation, and its relevance to our archaeology studies, read the journal entry from 30 July "Surprising Results from Makanrushi."
