The carcass of a juvenile humpback whale which died 3 weeks prior to this footage, at Ningaloo reef. It is amazing to see how quickly the co**se has been stripped almost clean by tiger sharks and all manner of other marine creatures over this time (mostly within the first 3 days!) and how the loss of this one beautiful creature has supported the entire ecosystem below in the circle of life.
We had the opportunity to join the Terra Australis crew (Disney+ Shipwreck Hunters Australia) on a livestreaming trip to Ningaloo reef off the NW coast of Western Australia to capture and livestream this and other amazing footage for the world.
This beautiful tropical paradise is home to many species of marine biology, and we were lucky enough to see a great selection over our 3 days of diving and two livestreams, including Humpback whales (both this carcass as well as many live adults and a very young newborn!), Manta rays, Loggerhead turtle, and various tropical fish species.
Unfortunately (and planned for next trip) we missed out on the majestic Whale sharks, and the Tiger sharks that we hoped to see... maybe next time!

Please also consider supporting our friends at Terra Australis, without whom we wouldn't be able to bring you some of these amazing views from Ningaloo! We look forward to working alongside these legends again soon!
