Tsl-V" V-- J Brought back to the United States recently from the Fiji islands by Rev. A. J. LaPlante, for ten years a missionary there, this photograph shows one of the strange customs of the island. Fiji islanders trap sharks in long woven nets. Wading into the trap, the natives pick up the sharks by their tails and kiss them on the upturned bellies. After this mysterious kiss the sharks show no signs of life. |
