A Western Australian motorist has been filmed driving down a road with a huge tiger shark strapped to the bullbar on their 4WD.
Facebook user Julie Wright was travelling with her son on Monday afternoon claiming she "had to look twice" when she saw the car in Safety Bay, sporting what is believed to be a tiger shark.
Since being posted the video has had a mix of responses with some thinking the angler may be faced with a hefty fine.
"I was driving down Safety Bay Road beside a boat and as I got closer to the car I had to double take as I was sure I was looking at a shark tail on the left," Ms Wright told PerthNow.
According to the Department of Fisheries, any shark caught in Perth and the South West must be smaller than 70cm from the front of the dorsal fin on the top of the shark to the back of the smaller rear dorsal fin.
Good way ter show-off 'is catch, that bloke, Ay!
G'day love 
Reckon it was cunning ploy by that bloke to cover up his plates so the coppers couldn't trace him? Ay?
A fisherman filmed driving with a tiger shark tied to the bullbar of his four-wheel drive in Safety Bay yesterday has revealed the story behind the mysterious sight.
The vision attracted strong interest and comments online after it was posted on social media and went viral.
Seven News Perth reporter Amelia Broun this morning tracked down the elderly fisherman responsible.
He told Broun he caught the shark while on board his boat, which is seen in the footage being towed behind his four-wheel drive.
He said by the time he landed the animal, it was dead, and he didn’t want to leave it in the water because divers were nearby and he was worried the carcass would attract more sharks.
The man said the shark was too heavy to lift into the boat so he decided to tie it to his bullbar.
Ain't nothin like a good fishin story. Ay!
