Dugong approaching Donovan Sims off the East Coast of Africa - Raw un-edited footage!
Adult female Dugong takes a keen interest in my dad Donovan Sims during a holiday in July off the Mozambique Coastline. These animals are usually shy and like to keep to themselves....but Not this time!
He has a natural way with animals which shines through in this awesome little clip.
I cleary remember him describing the hairy nostrils covering the muzzle of this amazing animal which wa
nted to make friends :)
She is lead by a juvenile shoal of Golden Kingfish as can always be found in front of a Dugong. There must be symbiotic relationship there that I am unaware of.

Caught in the Undertow Mozambique July 2021
มุมมอง 1.5K2 ปีที่แล้ว
An amazing trip with friends and family in July 2021 to the remote location of Vilanculos Mozambique. Great edit by Christo VD Ham (check him out Instagram: @venture_daily ) who edited all the footage filmed by myself, Paul Toich. Sad that we never got Donovan Sims 1st Sailfish on the Go Pro as the moment got away with us. Still a great watch and hope you enjoy. Footnote * undertow /ˈʌndətəʊ/ L...

    Do you honestly believe removing sexually mature fish from the population can be classified as "sustainable hunting"? The fact that you felt it necessary to respond to my comment by attempting to justify your actions as "sustainable hunting" at least suggests you have a conscience. By the way, there are many ways for a father and son to bond such as using rod and line, tagging the fish and releasing it which is far more impactful and satisfying knowing one made a contribution to the sustainability of our fish populations so that future generations are able to experience the joy of practicing catch and release.

      I've argued with to many people about this. I'm tired. Enjoy your life. I will be doing that just fine without your opinion. As valid as it may seem to you I have seen the destruction 1st hand that comes from "catch and release" Most fish die soon after as they have literally fought to the death and no longer have the energy to survive in a wild enviroment in the weak state that they are released. Nature takes care of the weak very quickly.

  • @andrewmeyer4655

    Another Silver & Black Steenbras killed unnecessary, not to mention the Yellow Belly Rockcod, all of which are under threat in SA. Get a rod & reel and practice catch & release like a real fisherman.

    I spearfished in Moz in 1974. We dived reef about 3km off the north point of Santa Carolina (Paradise Island) Ther were lots of kingy's and rubberlips there. Got chased out of the water by a zambie. Were you anywhere near that area?
