A Queensland marine export company that sent healthy scalloped hammerhead sharks captured off the Great Barrier Reef to a French aquarium will think twice before sending more.
A scalloped hammerhead shark photographed off Cocos Island, Costa Rica. https://www.flickr.com/people/71403236@N00.The shark deaths prompted international legal action against Nausicaa and calls for the federal government, which approves these live exports, to stop the capture and trade of fragile and vulnerable species.
"At the end of the day it is a transaction between us and them and we would reserve the right to make a call on that if we were not satisfied ourselves," he said. Lamya Essemlali, president of Sea Shepherd France, said the organisation was accusing Nausicaa of breaching the law by not making sure the babies were in a safe situation."We must make sure Nausicaa, nor any other aquarium, is not allowed to capture vulnerable species in their natural habitat."Mr Donnelly said the sharks were caught in an approved fishery area around the reef and were in "premium condition" before leaving.
