[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The 40-year-old man was found guilty of harming a threatened [url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/95632.html]species[/url] by a court in New South Wales (NSW) on Thursday. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The incident occurred in January 2012 at Sussex Inlet, south of Sydney. One other man has also been charged.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Great white sharks are protected in Australian waters. Officials say they are important to the local ecosystem.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]According to witnesses, the man herded the young shark into shallow water and deliberately hit it with his boat several times, the NSW Department of Primary Industries (DPI) said in a statement.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The [url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/95632.html]shark[/url]'s main injuries came from the boat's [b]propeller（螺旋桨）[/b], the DPI said.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]A rope was then tied onto the shark's tail and it was towed onto a boat ramp by a second boat, where it was beaten on the head with a metal pole multiple times, the DPI added.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The man was fined and required to cover court costs. The second man, who helped tow the shark, was also charged.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"This conviction sends a strong message that harming our threatened species will not be tolerated - everyone needs to know the rules and ignorance is no excuse," Glenn Tritton, director of fisheries compliance at the DPI, said.[/size][/font]
