The
spotted wobbegongs around Julian Rocks are all around the three
meter mark and look quite impressive when they swim straight
towards you. Although this shark will mostly just lie under
a rock ledge, when provoked it can do lot of damage. Just
like all wobbegongs it is able to turn around in a split second
and bite the diver that touched its tail......
In the photos you
can see the difference with the ornate wobbegong. The spotted
wobbegong is much paler and has distinctive circles over its
body. As you can see the colours and number of spots differs
quite a bit between individuals
