We continue to fight to expose the animal cruelty toward the Tiger Shark that was slaughtered in December 2023 by QDAF at Kings Beach, Caloundra. We are calling out the sham internal investigation that has taken place, where QDAF investigated themselves and cleared themselves (Ref: BQCM Inc 12811).

Here is an excerpt from the latest follow-up piece in the Courier Mail last week:

The repeated stabbing and disembowelling of a tiger shark off a Sunshine Coast beach that was captured in a graphic video has been ruled as “correct procedure” by a Queensland government department investigation.

Animal rights groups have slammed a Queensland government department investigation that has ruled the repeated stabbing and disembowelling of a tiger shark caught off a Sunshine Coast beach was “correct procedure”.

On December 20 last year a 2.8-metre tiger shark caught on a drum line off the Caloundra coast was brutally killed by a contractor as a drone took video footage from above of the animal thrashing around in its death throes.

The footage horrified animal lovers, sparking an internal investigation by the State government’s department of agriculture and fisheries.

However, that review has now concluded, with investigators finding correct procedure was followed and “no further action was required”.

We ask that you email the Premier at 'thepremier@premiers.qld.gov.au' and request the investigation (Ref: BQCM Inc 12811) be immediately re-opened, and that this time it becomes an independent investigation as opposed to QDAF investigating themselves again.
