SHARKS

SJL3_2018-Sharks.pdf

Coastal Encounters

Great White sharks – they instil fear and inspire awe. These sharks are an apex predator that can grow to 7m long and weigh near two tonnes, and were made famous by the 1975 hit movie ‘Jaws’. Little is known about this endangered animal, including where they breed, and their movements and their habits. But what is clear is that a new population of Great White sharks has taken up residence at one of our most popular holiday destinations and Dr Riley Elliott, known as SharkMan, wants to know why.
