The White Shark Conservation Trust has been established to promote awareness of the need to conserve and protect the white shark, Carcharodon carcharias and to educate the public about the animal. This action was triggered by a personal desire of one of the Trustees who decided he could no longer remain an armchair environmentalist. The realisation of the absolute fragility of these creatures was brought home to Bruce Goorney on a life changing expedition to see the sharks first hand at the Neptune Islands in the Spencer Gulf, South Australia in January 2008.
Favorite Cape Cod shark photo of the day! This is another aerial photograph taken by spotter pilot, Wayne Davis. We call this photo, "The Chase"
If this report is genuine and the Chinese are fishing the Galapagos waters, their activity illegal and must be stopped immediately. We question how and why they are being able to accomplish this without any intervention. The long term devastation to this PROTECTED marine sanctuary is unimaginable. How is it a nation feels it has a right to such deplorable action? We are sickened beyond belief at this and urge all of you all who feel as we to to voice your opinion via social media.
