A great white shark breaching out of the water in an attempt to catch a seal
World Cup Fans Beware: These Locals Aren't So Friendly
WORLD CUP FANS BEWARE: THESE LOCALS AREN'T SO FRIENDLY
Football fans better be careful if thinking of taking a dip in South Africa during the World Cup - the local sharks pull off some amazing manoeuvres to tackle fresh meat.
Visitors to Cape Town - where the Green Point Stadium hosts Uruguay/France on the tournament opening day (11 June) - will find plenty to cheer about outside the stadium if they witness the awesome spectacle of great white shark breaching; where the predators leap out of the water to catch seals swimming close to the surface.
Photographer Alfred Weissenegger snapped the breathtaking hunting skills of the sharks near Seal Island in False Bay, 30km south of the capital.
The area is acknowledged as the best place in the world to witness the sharks leaping out of the water.
This is mainly due to the presence of around 64,000 cape fur seals that call the island home from April to September.
With such an abundant food supply close by, great whites patrol the seas for young and inexperienced seal pups.
And they get plenty of opportunity; in order to reach the open sea to feed the seals must first cross the shark-infested waters, or so called 'ring of death'.
In a tactic known as 'spy hopping', the great white shark is also one of only a few sharks that regularly lift its head above the sea surface to sight their prey. It is believed that it enables them to smell better while hunting.
Once a tasty target is spotted the shark approaches stealthily before swimming up and bursting through the waves with jaws open.
Alfred says: "As someone very interesting in taking pictures of wildlife I have to say this was one of the most amazing ...

Dense population of Great White sharks, South Arica
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Dan Callister / Rex Features (1816310a)
Hungry Shark Loses Lunch ... And A Tooth
This Great White shark lost not only its lunch but also its tooth when it attacked a decoy seal.
The hungry shark leapt out of the water to snatch up what it thought was a tasty Cape fur seal in its massive jaws.
However, it was actually a decoy and the over enthusiastic shark bit down so hard that one of its teeth was sent flying.
The moment was caught on camera by photographer Dan Callister off the coast of Seal Island near Cape Town, South Africa.
A large population of sharks patrol the waters around Seal Island, which is home to around 64,000 Cape Fur seals from April to September.
With such an abundant food supply close by, scores of sharks patrol the seas around the island on the look out for young and inexperienced seal pups.
To reach the open sea to feed the seals must first cross these shark-infested waters - passing through what is known as the 'ring of death'.
The predators then catch their prey in truly spectacular fashion.
Approaching from below, the sharks leap nearly vertically out of the waves to snatch seals swimming close to the surface.
The behaviour means that the area is acknowledged as the best in the world to witness sharks breaching.

The moment was caught on camera by photographer Dan Callister off the coast of Seal Island near Cape Town, South Africa.
A large population of sharks patrol the waters around Seal Island, which is home to around 64,000 Cape Fur seals from April to September.
With such an abundant food supply close by, scores of sharks patrol the seas around the island on the look out for young and inexperienced seal pups.
To reach the open sea to feed the seals must first cross these shark-infested waters - passing through what is known as the 'ring of death'.
The predators then catch their prey in truly spectacular fashion.
Approaching from below, the sharks leap nearly vertically out of the waves to snatch seals swimming close to the surface.
The behaviour means that the area is acknowledged as the best in the world to witness sharks breaching.

Hungry Shark Loses Lunch ... And A Tooth
This Great White shark lost not only its lunch but also its tooth when it attacked a decoy seal.
The hungry shark leapt out of the water to snatch up what it thought was a tasty Cape fur seal in its massive jaws.
However, it was actually a decoy and the over enthusiastic shark bit down so hard that one of its teeth was sent flying.
