Fisherman finds dead shark with stomach full of rubbish and fishing line

A fisherman discovered a dead shark filled with rubbish and fishing lines.

Wade Papenfus, 26, from Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia, was filming a video of himself speed fishing when he came across the shark at the bottom of the ocean.

The content creator, who frequently documents his island survival adventures and catches his own food, found the shark washed up on the shore of Mentawai Island in Indonesia.

"I found the shark on the bottom of the ocean and dragged it to the shore because I didn’t know what was wrong with it," he said.

“I thought maybe it had swallowed something, so I cut open its belly and was shocked to find it completely filled with rubbish and fishing line.
