SHARK !
Mar 16th, 2025 at 2:11pm
 
Seems Norfolk Island has the biggest Tiger Sharks by size in the world. With growth up to 4m in length, a full metre more than the world average of 3m.
The myth of the islanders dumping cattle remains off a cliff being the main culprit, but a 3 year research proved that it only contributed to 10% of its diet and sea birds being the biggest contributer with 40 birds found in the stomach of one specimen. Fish and other water species, being the remainder of their diet.

That’s concerning because birds are on the surface, same as us.

My time as a commercial fishermen after rising the traps we would put out a bycatch as a floating bait , handline of course.
Always caught our biggest fish that way, thankfully never a bloody big shark of any variety.

But some very decent snapper you would expect to find much deeper.
