Golden Duck Posted May 21, 2020 #1 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Quote A Gold Coast man who escaped a hefty fine for freeing a baby whale calf from shark netting has pledged to give tens of thousands in crowdfunding donations to a marine conservation group. It is illegal in Queensland to interfere with equipment used for shark control, with a possible fine of up to $26,900 for doing so. But an investigation by the Department of Fisheries cleared him of any serious breaches. He has been handed two fisheries infringement notices but will not receive a monetary fine. https://www.9news.com.au/national/gold-coast-whale-rescuer-django-escapes-fine-but-receives-official-warning-over-actions-qld-news/e843961b-9367-442c-b8c3-c5669782b58 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
