Some fishermen inNassau, Bahamas, they rescued a baby shark that was dying trying to get out of a plastic bag, on the shore of a beach.

This baby shark is of the species known as the nurse or cat. It lives on the seabed and can measure up to 4 meters in length. The baby shark was lucky enough to find the right person at the right time.
