Be Safe in the Surf

Australian beaches are magic - they're clean and big and free ... but
they can also be very dangerous.


I read Shark Facts years ago after Jaws was released. A mother and her
daughter were walking a beach in Australia, sharks were beaching
themselves trying to reach them. They do this with seals as well, surf
a wave in, grab the seal and roll back out with the wave, seal in jaw.


That's behaviour some groups of killer whales have, orcas, those
adorable and majestic Free Willy beasts.
...I mean catching seals, not human.

Surfing in Australia....I don't think so.


P.S.

Killer Whale is really a killer, it kills seals, sharks, everything,
even whales of other species...Hence the name, whale killer...killer whale.

Here's some footage featuring the seal hunting method I referred to.
Taken from breathtaking BBC series Blue Planet(picture quality doesn't
do justice)

Somehow this reminds me of Nadal vs Federer at French Open...
