A Great White Shark Does Something I've Never Seen Before. What is this?

In this video, I film white sharks in kelp beds and observe them interacting with sea life all around, undisturbed by humans. I note three white sharks may be forming a loose social association and I also document a growing trend among the white sharks in Southern California; Sharks with injuries. Stay to the end and you'll see footage of a great white shark doing something you may not have ever seen before. I know I haven't seen this behavior.
