The saying “With death, comes life” could not ring more true for one family that will never forget their Cape Town beach visit, where they saved the lives of three young sharks.
The family saw the body of an adult shark lying on the beach and hesitantly moved closer to investigate. The mom noticed movements in the shark’s abdomen and after deciding that the deceased shark was indeed pregnant, dad began to cut the pups free.
A total of three shark pups were inside and the vacationing family helped them make it to the ocean.
When shark pups are born naturally, they quickly swim away from their mothers to avoid being eaten. Since they are ready to be on their own when born, the three beach born pups have nothing to worry about.
Kudos to the family who saved three sharks!
