A new report from the South Australian Marine Mortality Events citizen science project documented about 8255 shark and ray deaths across 31 species statewide between January 2025 and June 2026.

A battle is brewing over Port Hughes’ Greg Norman-designed golf course, with The Dunes residents campaigning against a compulsory $854 annual levy they say has outlived its purpose.

Ratepayers claim more than 100 people have signed a petition opposing the levy which is collected through Copper Coast Council rates and passed directly to Copperclub Golf and Community Association.
