Body Seal

Carcass of headless seal washes ashore in Malibu

The headless body of a seal washed up this afternoon off of the same Malibu glide where a shark was spotted yesterday.

But county lifeguard Capt. Terry Harvey said there could be no reference between the shark and the seal.

“There are all kinds of carcasses that wash up,” Harvey said. “It happens often. You can’t always deal with it to that.”

Harvey said he hasn’t heard of another spotting of the shark, which was first sighted yesterday about a locality-mile off the coast, which is why he believed there was no connection between the two.

Although some believed the shark could have been a Spectacular White, KTLA5 reported it was possible that it could have been a Mako, which is compare favourably with in appearance.

Harvey said he did not know what type of shark it was but did discern it was “fairly sizeable.”
