Tracking Great Whites

For a fantastically eery experience, log onto Ocean Global Shark Tracker and see what a few Great Whites are doing right now. As of yesterday, Maddox, a 2000lb monster, was casually heading into the Maputo Bay area. Brenda Fassie and Louise were cruising the coast just south of Inhambane, a bunch of whites are swimming about in Zululand…and for those of you living and swimming in the Cape – wow! An amazing concentration of sharks hang out in the Southern Cape waters…check it out…!

Another success story is about a shark called Success, a 3500 pounder – he swam across from deep Cape Town to past Maputo and across to Madagascar in 6 weeks!

Well I am not sure what this all means to each different ocean using community out there…but it sure stokes emotions either way.

This little baby white could be your worse nightmare, the encounter of your life, food or profit…as a surfer, a diver, a subsistence fisherman or a poacher…

Guinjata Bay. Southern Mozambique. A few days back…

Thanks for the photos emailed by Janine Newman and taken by Sergio Cavalho.
