(From theaustralian.news.com.au)- The adult humpback was sighted tangled in ropes and fish traps 4km off shore from Maroubra on Friday but has not been sighted since. This distressing image which shows the whale floating close to the surface with line around its body, was captured by fisherman Greg Stevenson. Yesterday, Upper House Greens MP Ian Cohen raised concerns that more whales may be trapped during their annual migration and warned of the dangers of fishing nets. He said whales will be put at risk by the installation of shark nets along the state”s coast today.
