GREAT WHITE NECROPSY
February 9th, 2009

Photos from a public necropsy of a Great White Shark i saw while back in New Zealand. The shark was caught in a fisherman’s net off the coast of Auckland and drowned. The body was given to the Auckland Museum and they decided to do the obvious thing and have a small public dissection. But in the end thousands turned up and watched from grandstand seating. The museum staff even set up a moving line where you could touch its nose and feel the scratches seals made as they were eaten alive.
