Thought from the title that there was a new KTM dealership opening up in Barmouth. Interesting though - looks well fed - anybody missing from the town?
don't know mate , there wasn't a mark on it , the blood from the mouth is where people have had the teeth , someone has now cut the belly open and there was a baby porpoise / dolphin in it !
mako shark. I have kitesurfed just down the road from that beach many times. Always wondered what might be swimming beneath me. Now I know. Mako sharks usually stay out in deep water though, unlike it's cousin the Great White.
I don't think it was alive and fancied a wriggle on the beach then an ice cream, seeing it was a nice day and all. Sharks tend to be warm water critters, they don't holiday in Wales for obvious reasons.
This isn't true. The water temps around the UK are perfect for a lot of sharks, including the Great White. The Great White can heat it's own body unlike a Tiger shark for example which couldn't survive in cold water. That Mako is closely related to a Great White and is also the fastest fish in the sea. They have been known to attack people.
Iv heard they are rough like sandpaper, Iv not ticked a shark off my 'touched list' Iv ticked most domestic animals off with a few farm animals, but I'm still relatively young so got a lot of 'touching' time left fingers crossed.....
sharks skin is smooth one way (head to tail) and very rough tail to head - so rough they used to use the skin as sand paper -
looks well fed probably uses the garmin quest sat nav that thing would get you lost in a car park :burnout:
It might have got stranded when the tide went out......it would probably have rolled over if it died at sea and was just drifting. There are a lot of sand bars and areas where something like that could get trapped as the tide goes out.
Fuckin' 'ell
What was his words..."they don't care about us"? Hmmm, yes they do.
Most shark attacks are the sharks having a taste to see if it's prey they can eat, a lot of the time they leave humans alone after the first bite.
I really don't like all this shark tourism either, they feed sharks in tourism areas to attract them for diving etc, trouble is the shark then associates food with humans, it's only a matter of time before an attack happens.
It probably got confused when it's mates said that eating whales was easy.
Here comes the oldie
2 men going to the cinema
1st one says "what's on"
2nd one says "free willy"
1st one says " I don't like porn films"
2nd one says " It's not about sex it's about whales"
1st one says........wait for it
