    He (Shack) was probably diving that deep to avoid fin-hunters...

    :(

    Thankfully great whites are protected in New Zealand. Unfortunately the same can't be said of all our other magnificent sharks.

    Roll on protection for our threatened basking sharks, whale sharks, porbeagles, makos and blue sharks at the very LEAST I say!

    And don't forget to support our shark finning pledge and a call for NZ to ban shark finning - the QMS is NOT the right tool!
