Grey Nurse Shark

Published 29 September 2022
Elegantly swimming silently, undetected.
Long bodies, sharp jagged teeth, long pectoral fins gliding through the water.
Calm, harmless, placid, tranquil.
In search of crabs and lobster to prey on in the pristine clear shallow waters.
Mating is slow, two pups every two years.
The Grey Nurse endangered from fishing.
Population stands at around two thousand and declining.
We need to help our ocean-dwelling friends.
Please help our harmless friends.
Not man-eater they’re calm, placid and tranquil.
Don’t hunt them don’t fish them.
They deserve to live not die.
They deserve to live.
