  • EXCLUSIVE: You ORCA look behind you, this incredible photo shows a diver seemingly just yards from a feeding killer whale. Norwegian teacher Svein Aasjord, 44, his wife, and three boys, live in a fjord called Kaldfjord, in northern Norway close to the city of Tromsø - 217 miles north of the Arctic Circle. As well as living in one of the stunning coastal inlets Norway is famous for, the Aasjord family also live in one which is a popular hunting channel for whales feeding on herring. Each winter millions and millions of herring feed along the Norwegian coast in rich cold-water currents. Heading north to meet them is one the largest gatherings of orca and humpback whales on earth ready to feast on the bounty. In open water the whales stand little chance against the fast-moving shoals of herring, but by herding the tiny fish into fjords the whales create hundreds of ‘bait balls’ trapping the fish at the surface before going in for the kill. Sometimes the Aasjord family’s local Kaldfjord can be literally full of herring and large numbers of orca and humpbacks hunting them. The action has been so close to the house that Svein has been able to take photographs from inside his own property. These stunning photographs are just some Svein has been able to take over the years, including some breath-taking shots of his friends SWIMMING with the hunting orcas. Svein said: “All the people that have seen that picture tell me ‘he’s going to die in the next moment’. “I shouted to my friend ‘look over here’, because I wanted him to be looking at me when one of the big males was behind him. The whale of course was not up for the diver at all, he was just up for air. “The diver is a friend of mine, he and his girlfriend are experienced divers, they are not professional divers but they dive all the time. “We shut off the engine, as I am very strict when it comes to not disturbing the whales because they are feeding and I don’t want to interfere with their live

  • EXCLUSIVE: Great white sharks have mysteriously vanished from one of their most popular hunting grounds in South Africa leaving tourism bosses baffled as to what has driven away one of their biggest money spinners. Theories include a fear of Orca's who have been targeting the apex predators tearing them open to eat their fatty livers as well as pollution, climate change and over fishing of much of the great whites natural prey. Between 2010 and 2016 shark spotters recorded an average of 205 great white sightings a year in False Bay which is a 600 square mile section of the Atlantic Ocean near tourist hot spot Cape Town. In 2018 they were only 50 sightings of the deadly predators made famous by the Hollywood blockbuster Jaws and so far this year not a single one of the much-feared great white shark has been spotted. And it has been two years since the Shark Spotters Applied Research Programme has picked up a signal from any of the great white’s that had been tagged by scientists and were resident in False Bay. This comes after 5 great white sharks were washed up along the South African coastline in 2017 with gaping wounds on their side with their livers having been bitten out by two killer whales in the area. The killer whales bite a large slit in the side of the great whites after attacking as a pair and then suck out the fatty liver which is 600lb meat delicacy in a phenomenon that has only recently been discovered. The two Orca’s responsible – known as Port and Starboard as their dorsal fins hang to the left on one and to the right on the other – spurned their natural prey like seals having developed a taste for shark.

  • EXCLUSIVE: Great white sharks have mysteriously vanished from one of their most popular hunting grounds in South Africa leaving tourism bosses baffled as to what has driven away one of their biggest money spinners. Theories include a fear of Orca's who have been targeting the apex predators tearing them open to eat their fatty livers as well as pollution, climate change and over fishing of much of the great whites natural prey. Between 2010 and 2016 shark spotters recorded an average of 205 great white sightings a year in False Bay which is a 600 square mile section of the Atlantic Ocean near tourist hot spot Cape Town. In 2018 they were only 50 sightings of the deadly predators made famous by the Hollywood blockbuster Jaws and so far this year not a single one of the much-feared great white shark has been spotted. And it has been two years since the Shark Spotters Applied Research Programme has picked up a signal from any of the great white’s that had been tagged by scientists and were resident in False Bay. This comes after 5 great white sharks were washed up along the South African coastline in 2017 with gaping wounds on their side with their livers having been bitten out by two killer whales in the area. The killer whales bite a large slit in the side of the great whites after attacking as a pair and then suck out the fatty liver which is 600lb meat delicacy in a phenomenon that has only recently been discovered. The two Orca’s responsible – known as Port and Starboard as their dorsal fins hang to the left on one and to the right on the other – spurned their natural prey like seals having developed a taste for shark.
