Looking for Swissy and eDog shark attack pictures...?

I read in this one book, devil's teeth, that two sea lions were released in the shark-infested Farallon Islands. The first one, eDog, swam safely to shore. The second, Swissy, was released, photographed for about thirty seconds, and then promptly bitten in half by a 17-foot, 2 ton great white shark named gouge (for the large boat prop marks on his head).





The book says that the shutter of a camera went off exactly as the great white breached out and hit Swissy, and I assumed that it would be one of those "everywhere" pictures that you see. It must have been too violent or was lost or something, because I can't find it anywhere on google, ask, dogpile, etc.





All I can find is some brief mentionings of the pinniped in certain sea lion rescue-and-release articles. It bluntly puts the whole "ripped-in-half-by-a-giant-shark" thing and moves on to radio tags and whatnot.





The point is, I can't find anything more on them than that. So PLEASE help me, I want to learn more.

I love that book!





I have not seen those photos around but if you are looking for good seal/white shark photos there are tons. I threw a few links before.





If you REALLY want to find that exact photo I suggest contacting the publisher or other contacts found within the book. With having a handful of photos in the book the publisher might even have that photo in an archive that just never made the final cut.
