The wildlife photographer Chris Fellows spends over half of each year waiting off the coast of South Africa to capture the sharks at their grisly work.


"The sharks feed on young seals when they are attempting to return to Seal Island after a few days out feeding," Mr Fellows said. "The sharks will bite the seal, typically in half in the first go, and then come round and pick the other half up. It is all on the surface and it happens in a few minutes."
Mr Fellows added: "When children see a shark eat a seal they feel sorry for the seal, but it's like a lion catching a zebra - it's a natural phenomenon.

Man Utd 2 (Rooney 77, Ronaldo 90)

The Royals were very unlucky to lose to Champions Manchester United at Madejski Stadium today. While United were always going to be a threat with their world class players, we more than matched them for long periods as our attacking style caused them real problems. We put in a great performance, and really took the game by the scruff of its neck, lining up with Leroy Lita and Dave Kitson up front, Kevin Doyle on the right wing and Stephen Hunt in central midfield.
Kalifa Cisse put in a great performance at centre back, and his deflected effort was just one of a number of chances we had in an action-packed first half.
Both keepers were called upon to make good saves, with Marcus Hahnemann pulling off a wonderful stop to deny Owen Hargreaves from a free kick. Edwin Van Der Sar twice denied Dave Kitson, while the frontman almost scored from 40 yards but Rio Ferdinand cleared desperately.
Ryan Giggs came on at half time, and it gave the visitors some fresh impetus, with Cisse clearing brilliantly off the line just moments after the restart. With 13 minutes to go, United broke the deadlock with a finish of real quality from Wayne Rooney. James Harper was then no more than two feet away from an equaliser after breaking through from midfield.
Cristiano Ronaldo (when he stayed on his feet) added an injury time goal on the break, and it was very harsh on Steve Coppell's men.
We gave absolutely everything, and came away with our heads held very high indeed.
Marek Matejovsky came on for the last ten minutes, and looked very accomplished and good on the ball.
Despite the loss, it was a very uplifting afternoon's work for the Royals, and they can take renewed confidence after being at the very top of their game.

Lost season 4

Asking Reading to return to White Hart Lane just a week after the inexplicable 6-4 game was a bit like asking a crime victim to go back to the scene of the crime. The torrid game last week was never going to be repeated in terms of score-line or performance. However, all those going to the match would have been fully expecting goals and incident. They got precisely that with four goals including a very bizarre opener and a sending off as well.
Tottenham nearly opened the scoring with a carbon copy of their first goal last week. Berbatov found Keane in the Reading box, but the Irishman, who was all-alone and had an open goal, but fired his shot wide. It was easier to score than miss, but in terms of being a blunder it was seriously overshadowed in the 25th minute.
Stephen Hunt delivered a free kick into the penalty box and Paul Robinson caught the ball. However, in doing so he was ruled by the linesman to have carried the ball over the line. The replays on Match of the Day do not conclusively rule that it was a goal, but for the second in two weeks a contentious goal was given in favour of Reading.

If that particular decision appeared to something of a recurring dream, sadly the recurring nightmare of not being able to keep a clean sheet was not far away. Tottenham equalised when Dimitar Berbatov smashed home a shot inside the Reading box. Shortly after the break déjà vu was in full swing as the Bulgarian grabbed his sixth goal against Reading in seven days from the penalty spot. Robbie Keane was brought down and Berbatov converted the subsequent penalty.
That is now four penalties in five games against Reading. All that was left now was the obligatory red card. It did arrive but not until after Reading had equalised. Berbatov had missed another open goal to put Spurs 3-1 up and as a result Reading could sense they were still very much in the game. Sure enough Stephen Hunt, who once again had endured unnecessary abuse from the home supporters, pounced on a Robinson parry after Leroy Lita’s shot wasn’t held by the hapless goalkeeper to equalise.
With Reading and Tottenham facing each other so soon after the league meeting, there was always going to be a slight undercurrent of temper between the two sides. It all became too much late in the game for Tom Huddlestone and Bobby Convey. A clash off the ball between the two players led to Huddlestone appearing to head butt Convey and referee Mark Clattenburg had no option but to send off the Tottenham player. Convey received a yellow card as well. Round three will now take place between the two sides as they meet for the third time in one and half weeks in a replay at the Madejski Stadium.
