Nat Geo Wild is taking an unapologetic chomp out of a Discovery Channel summer staple. The network, a joint venture between the National Geographic Society and Fox, has released a promo that all but admits it's stolen the idea of multiple nights of shark-infested programming from its cable competitor.

Discovery Channel's 28th Shark Week begins July 5 and features 19 hours of sharktastic shows—the most ever.

Nat Geo Wild also kicks off its SharkFest on July 5.
