RE: The once a year event: South Africa's Sardine Run
Wow, that was a very exciting day, I have never seen so many sardines before, because our place is relatively far from sea level, are the sardines stranded or vice versa?
Thank you for the visit and the engagement.
The sardines mainly swim just behind the backline, where the waves are formed. What however happens is that because they swim so close to the surface, they are often caught in the waves, and then they swim where they can be caught by nets, etc., or either wash out. It is not strange to see sharks also swimming in the shallow waters.
You are right that sardines swim where waves form, so they can avoid predatory fish
Often they are not so lucky (•ิ‿•ิ)
