The fisherman cast his capture: A whale shark more than five meters and weighing two tons. He moved to the Yangzhi market in Fujian Province, unaware that this species is protected by endangered. The man told the media that sneaked into their nets to eat the fish that were caught and got stuck there.
The fisherman, who took the whale shark in his rickety vehicle, thought to sell it on the market for about three thousand euros, but inspectors stopped him.
La caza y captura de esta especie, en peligro de extinción está prohibida en China. El Tiburón ballena, que puede vivir hasta cien años, tiene que ser puesto en libertad en caso de que se capture de forma accidental.
El pescador aseguró a los medios que el animal se introdujo en sus redes y no pudo salir. Poco después intentó escapar sin éxito y murió.
