Shark Alert in Cape Town!

One of Cape Town’s most popular beaches, Muizenberg Beach, was closed after a dead whale was found floating in waist-deep water.

But it wasn’t the whale that was the problem. It was all the sharks that were feeding on it.

The 32 ft juvenile Humpback whale carcass was found at Surfer’s Corner in Muizenberg and appeared to have shark bite marks.

Local shark spotters are on high alert, and law enforcement officers are on the scene, advising people not to surf or swim at the beach.
