Two intrepid young people managed to rescue a large hammerhead shark that was stranded on a beach in Miami.
The enormous shark was on the sand when two young people decided to grab it by the horns of its peculiar head and pull it back into the sea.
"Wow! These guys caught a huge hammerhead shark in Miami and were able to safely release it shortly after!", reported the Only in Dade page, sharing a video of the event.
At the beginning of June, authorities in Florida warned beachgoers about the presence of sharks on the Gulf of Mexico coast, after three people suffered severe attacks.
While patrolling the beaches of the west coast in boats, the officers noticed an increased presence of sharks in the so-called Panhandle area, which includes the 18 most western counties of the State.
Authorities even temporarily closed several beaches after a woman and two teenagers were injured in shark attacks in Walton County. The beaches were reopened, but with red flags (high-risk conditions) and purple flags (indicating the presence of dangerous marine life) warning of the danger.
In mid-April, a hammerhead shark, also known as a winghead shark, attacked the cork raft of some Cuban fishermen near the coast of Havana.
"What a kind of madness! Look how it bites the cork. Here it comes again! It won't bring us down, but... what a shark. These are anecdotes that only we experience", said one of the fishermen involved in the surprising encounter at sea.
At the beginning of this year, three hammerhead sharks caused amazement by reaching the shore of a beach in Florida, where swimmers could not believe what they were seeing.
The incident occurred at dusk on Anna Maria Island, a barrier island located off the coast of Manatee County. The video of the curious event showed a group of people standing on the seashore, marveling at the spectacle of the three sharks flapping their fins at their feet.
