Learn About Sharks -- and Collect Shark Day Bonuses

This Thursday is international Shark Awareness Day and in tribute to the incredible predators of the southern oceans, South Africa’s Thunderbolt Casino has published a shark information page to help create greater awareness and appreciation of these often misunderstood creatures. They're also giving free spins on some deep sea-themed slots in a series of Shark Day Casino Bonuses.

The purpose of Shark Awareness Day is to help people appreciate how magnificent – and endangered -- sharks are. The worldwide demand for shark-fin soup  and indiscriminate commercial fishing practices result in millions of sharks being killed every year – 11,000 every hour of every day.

“I’ve always been fascinated by sharks, especially the Great Whites in our southern oceans,” said Alisa, Thunderbolt’s casino manager. “I’ve gathered up some fascinating information about them – some things will really surprise you I think!  Did you know that Great White Sharks rarely attack people and when they do, it’s usually because they’ve mistaken a person for their favourite food, a Cape Fur Seal. Scientists estimate that after a big meal, a Great White Shark can last up to three months before needing another one!”
