A group of fishermen rescued a shark that had got entangled in a fishing net off the Sunshine Coast in Queensland.

The footage, captured on July 4, shows the men disentangling the shark from the net before releasing it back into the ocean.

The filmer writes: ‘’It's mullet fishing season at the moment, the shark was accidentally caught in the mullet net so was released back into the ocean by the fisherman.’’

The clip was captured today (July 4).
