1. The great white shark bit off more than it could chew and choked to death on a huge sea lion it tried to swallow.
2. Fisheries Department inspectors who had come to inspect the scene found “no visible signs of injury or disease”, however they did discover “a large Australian sea lion” in its throat.
3. The 13ft shark was seen thrashing about before it was found dead.
4. Tash Tapper shot a video of the shark and uploaded it on YouTube, which has had more than 17,000 views so far.
5. The shark could not dislodge the chunk of food in its throat.
6. Ms. Tapper, who was on the beach with her family, described the scene as ‘surreal’.
7. “Such a large object may have damaged the shark’s internal organs or impeded water flow into his gills, contributing to his death”.
8. Alternatively, the shark may have accidentally become stranded in his attempts to get rid of the obstruction.
