THE Chinese fisherman who pulled in this “super fish” was so proud of his catch he strapped it to his vehicle and brought it to market — apparently not realising it was an endangered whale shark.
The disturbing images of the whale shark — which is a protected species — being hauled through the town of Xiangzhi in Fujian province caused a stir on Weibo, China’s equivalent to Twitter.

“It was really unfortunate and we did our best to free it, but having caught it and because it was already dead, it seemed a shame to waste it."
Waste not, want not, Ay?
