WALTER AND THE TIGERS
Freediving with Tiger Sharks in South Africa with Walter Bernardis, an expert diver on these animals. Throughout the scuba dives we see that Tigers are not as aggressive or dangerous as we think. We're left with a feeling of safety and affection for them. But in the 2nd half, we see these Sharks killed in the local beach nets. We see the damage done to the Tiger Shark population and other Sharks and marine species too. Tigers are not a danger to humans, the humans are a danger to the Tigers – and it's humans like Walter that can save them.
