Great white shark triggers alarm at Bondi Beach

from Sunrise · host LiSTNR

A great white shark has been spotted at the northern end of Bondi Beach, triggering the shark alarm and causing swimmers and surfers to evacuate the water. The sighting was detected by a private drone operator who alerted lifeguards, as a large bait ball in the northern pocket is believed to have attracted the shark. The incident has intensified calls for increased shark surveillance measures along the New South Wales coastline, including year-round drone monitoring and a proposed shark summit, with the government already investing in drone technology and smart drumlines.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
