Hundreds of dead sharks and fish wash up on two beaches in Wales

Local conservationist says a fishing boat hoping for a more commercial catch may have thrown them overboard

Hundreds of dead sharks and fish believed to be part of a discarded catch have washed up on two Welsh beaches.

Dog walkers found a full net of dogfish, also known as catsharks, on Carmarthenshire’s Cefn Sidan on Saturday. A few days earlier, hundreds of dead sharks and fish had been found on Saundersfoot beach in neighbouring Pembrokeshire.
