Tigress Shark

Shawn Heinrichs, Hannah Fraser & Jim Abernethy team up to Oppose West Australia's Shark Cull

By Brent Durand, June 10, 2014

Shawn Heinrichs and Hannah Fraser have teamed up again, delivering another incredible video to share the message "End the war on sharks." The duo have worked on similar projects with whale sharks, humpback whales and most recently in Mantas Last Dance, but have taken it one step further for Tigress Shark.

Teaming up with Jim Abernethy, Hannah dived with swarms of tiger sharks without the use of protective or dive gear. The result is an incredbile video and photo series. If this video doesn't show the beauty of these magnificent sharks, then we don't know what will.

Please make sure to do what you can to help end West Australia's Shark Cull. Tiger Sharks are one of the most heavily hit species.
