PHOTO'S OF THE TRAIL 1 SHARK! (and just in time for spring break!)



San Onofre State Beach — On March 5, 2008 Kelly Lewis reported the following: “The shark was spotted at the base of Trail One, San Onofre State Park at approximately 1:45 PM. It appeared to be about 6 feet long. It was thrashing violently until a set of waves came in to float it (see photographs). It then spent another 2 to 3 minutes in very shallow water sometimes on it's back, eventually swimming into deeper water and disappearing. Dozens of seagulls were circling as if an opportunity existed. I had just been knee deep in the water a hundred yards south throwing a stick for my dog that was swimming well out into the surf. No surfers were in the water. My clothing doesn't seem to be of any importance. The shark came ashore independent of any human interaction. The beach has a very flat sand bar 300 feet long that stays flat out another 200 feet. However at the area this shark was ashore there are rocky depressions that set up drainage 'creeks' that run parallel to the shore to drain away higher sets that flood over the sand bar at or around low tide. My guess is the shark just got washed in and ended up stranded until another 'flooding set' allowed him to find an escape route. It was very lethargic after the set re-floated it, and as you saw in the one picture it was on its back. It also swam on its side for a period of time. I thought it may have been seriously injured. There was pinkish, almost a diluted blood look along its belly.” The pictured animal is a juvenile male White Shark, which frequent this area. Please report any shark sighting, encounter, or attack to the Shark Research Committee.

That man-eater should have gobbled up your dog, head first. Then, you'd realize dogs don't belong on the beach.

All dogs belong at the beach. Its some of the people that need to stay home. I have yet to see a dog breaking beer bottles against the fire rings or picnic tables. When was the last time you caught a dog burning pallets at Sano?? Of all the dogs I've seen at Sano, not one of them ever wore a Raider hat or gotten drunk for that matter.

Bro, you gotta problem with our Raiders, well tough totems. Goosie Lucy was right: dogs don't belong at the beach. No way. Last weekend a Surf Club Dog had diarreah all over the beach and this kid is playing in it. Forget toll roads ban all dogs SOSC and HSC. No dogs on the beach, no crapp all over our beach.

There are two important things you need to know if you are going to the beach at San Onofre, especially if you plan to go near the water.

1. The Great White Sharks at San Onofre have been known to disguise themselves as other species in order to trap unwary beach goers. The dolphin disguise is one of their favorites, so is the porpoise.

2. The Great White Sharks at San Onofre have been known to feign injury or illness – often flailing around in the shore break - in order to lure good samaritans closer, at which point they strike.

If you save the picture to your computer and enlarge the image, then you can see that it is, without any doubt, a shark.

is all I can say to the whole bunch of you is"seek professional help". Murph & Me are going to Rincon for 3 days to get away from the insanity.

Let me just say, that is not a male! That is a female because if you would have noticed before you made your ignorant statement, you would have noticed that the shark has no "CLASPERS"! And if your to stupid to know what claspers are, they are to elongated appendages that are near the sharks fins near its anus.

What time are you picking me up?

Anonymous said...

I will not inquire if inmature male sharks have yet to develope claspers since you have already played the ANUS CARD. Once the ANUS CARD has been played, I must defer to you concerning all things anus.

Anonymous said...

The real fact is, this imature shark can not be identified as male or female as it is to young to tell.

As long as they don't drop in on me, I'm fine with them. Remember, we're in THEIR territory. It's what makes surfing exciting and keeps barneys out.

Howdy exceptional blog! Does running a blog such as this require
a lot of work? I have virtually no understanding of coding but I was hoping to
start my own blog in the near future. Anyways, should you have
any recommendations or tips for new blog owners please share.

I understand this is off subject nevertheless I just
wanted to ask. Thanks!

I was curious if you ever considered changing the layout of your site?

Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.

Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or 2 pictures.

Maybe you could space it out better?

Today, I went to the beach front with my children. I found a sea
shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She placed the shell to her ear and screamed.
There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off
topic but I had to tell someone!
