The waters just off Stockton Beach form part of a larger nursery for Great white sharks. The Great white sharks in the nursery are thought to range in size from 1.5 to 3 m (4.9 to 9.8 ft). Humpback whales can be spotted from the beach each year during the migration season

Famous quotes containing the word wildlife:
“Russian forests crash down under the axe, billions of trees are dying, the habitations of animals and birds are layed waste, rivers grow shallow and dry up, marvelous landscapes are disappearing forever.... Man is endowed with creativity in order to multiply that which has been given him; he has not created, but destroyed. There are fewer and fewer forests, rivers are drying up, wildlife has become extinct, the climate is ruined, and the earth is becoming ever poorer and uglier.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
