Mr Orlov then cut open the dead shark to remove the pups, which took nine minutes.
Whether or not the sharks will survive without the mother is unknown.
“As soon as she was on the boat we saw the seven bite marks from another shark," he said.
“I could feel through the line when she was being attacked. As soon as we pulled it up I knew was mauled by another shark.
“When I saw the belly moving, instinct kicked in. I’ve never done anything like this before, but I’ve fishing long enough to know we needed to get the pups out as quickly as possible.
“It was a very overwhelming feeling when they started popping out, I got this adrenaline rush. I was just dumbfounded there was so many, we counted 98.”
Mr Orlov said he cooked and ate the dead shark.
