Description Common in shallow waters and has been caught at depths of 100 m. Also found in caves in coral reefs or wrecks; adults and juveniles are also found in estuaries. Individuals more than a meter long have been caught from shore and in harbours. Feeds on spiny lobsters, fishes, including small sharks and batoids, and juvenile sea turtles and crustaceans. In South African eatuaries, the main prey item is the mud crab, @Scylla serrata@. [details]
