Dunedin fishermen capture 'euphoric moment' as whale breaches near boat

Nicole Reporter from Dunedin News

Two Dunedin fishermen have captured the “euphoric” moment as a whale breaches out of the water just metres from their boat.

Real estate agent Chris Taylor had taken the day off work to fish with a friend near Cape Saunders off the coast of Dunedin on Friday.

Taylor said he had just reeled in a tuna when he witnessed what appeared to be a large humpback whale breach out of the water.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
