Older than dinosaurs and the result of 400 million years of evolution, the Great White Shark is the ultimate apex predator. Living as long as humans in the unknown watery world, this 4m male white sharks face tells of a life filled with stories of survival. From the charismatic deep seal scratches to a healed broken jaw this is the portrait of the ultimate survivor. To the 2014 government of Western Australia it is the portrait of a serial killer. The controversial culling of the protected Great White Shark is in the ‘national interest’ of protecting public safety and tourism – but at what environmental and ecological costs. Charcharodon carcharias (Great White Shark) IUCN Red List – VU Vulnerable. Taken at South Neptune Island, South Australia down at 23 metres.
