AUSTRALIA: caught and released an 880 lb tiger shark


Here you cans see a YouTube video of a large tiger shark that was caught and then released by an angler fishing off the coast of Western Australia. The fish was estimated to be 880 lb - 400 kg and 13.3 feet - 4 mt long.

Seems that the big shark was caught accidentally. Some local fishermen came together ensuring the safe and humane release of this beautiful fish. The fishermen have an extended struggle in trying to remove the hook but they appear successful.
