Protected Shark mercissly tortured in WESTERN-AUSTRALIA.

Gandhi said "the greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated".

The emergence of a disturbing video depicting the merciless torture of a protected shark in
Western Australia throws into question the integrity of the local government due to it’s complete and utter lack of action.

VIGILANTE fishermen in Australia are hunting, killing and even torturing sharks for sport and conservation groups say new laws allowing great white sharks to be destroyed have "demonised"
all sharks and encouraged vigilantes.

The video depicts a Dusky Shark lynched by a rope around its neck and left strung up with its stomach cut wide open and entrails hanging. The defenceless creature then endures endless
blows to the head by its cowardly attacker with a piece of steel all the while thrashing around, still alive, in a vain attempt to escape the obvious agony.

The Western Australian government are ignoring the matter, the Western Australian Police are washing their hands of it and The Department of Fisheries Western Australia are turning a blind eye.

The video, along with intimidating and inflammatory comments, was posted to the wall of a Facebook page for shark conservation by a person using the Facebook profile name -
PAUL SULLIVAN.

The perpetrator stated, in a public arena, that he was in possession of other videos of similar
content depicting him and his accomplices torturing and killing numerous
sharks, claiming that in one video, he shoots a tiger shark.
