Watch: Dead whale off Waiheke Island sparks shark feeding frenzy

January 24, 2018

Tourists aboard an Auckland Whale and Dolphin Safari vessel saw something slightly different today off Waiheke Island.

A dead whale off the coast of Waiheke Island caused a feeding frenzy yesterday.

Tourists aboard an Auckland Whale and Dolphin Safari Vessel discovered the carcass, complete with sharks getting their early morning meal.

It's believed the ocean giant is a juvenile fin whale or a Bryde's whale, both of which are endangered.

It's not yet known what killed the whale.
