Hi Guys,

I just got mailed this pic by a friend and I recognized the Point Hotel and Lighthouse in Mosselbay in the background. I don't have ANY of the details surrounding the incident so I'm NOT making judgements. I just think it's sad to see such a giant of the sea dead.

I'll see if I can get any more details but perhaps someone knows what happened here?

Oops, I think I may just have posted an "un-postable" picture without even knowing it.

Admin, please remove the pic of the GW/aka sharpnose Bronzie if inappropriate.

Please note that this fish was not caught anywhere near Mosselbay.  There is a shark research institute at the Point in Mosselbay.  They worked with National Geographic and a dead GW was brought down after it was caught in the shark nets in KZN.

It is a sad thing to see such an animal in my opinion but it's an occurance brought about by the shark nets in KZN, nothing else.

no i didnt post the picture, it's regarding all the other posts that have sprung up with the 2 photos of the great white.

A while back, Admin had taken a collective decision that any pics of a dead Great White or one that has been caught would be removed from the site.

We will have to re-look at this, and work out an easier way to inform new members that NO pics of Whites are allowed !

Thanks !!!

Quote from a email I recieved...


Hi
 
Hulle het Vrydag ‘n fliek by die punt gemaak. Meer Geographics. Mense van oorsee het gekom. Die haai is ‘n maand terug in Durban gevang, en toe het hulle dit gevries. Hulle wag blykbaar al maande vir ‘n wyfie haai. Dit is nog ‘n jong haai. 4.7 m lank. Hulle wil dit ontleed in die lab, maar hulle het toe die onderhoude by die punt gedoen. Ons was 9uur Vrydagaand weer daar, toe is hulle besig om dit op te sny. Hulle gaan dit dan weer terug stuur Durban toe na die lab, waar dit ontleed gaan word.
