Huge bull shark swimming in waves - metres from oblivious surfers
- last year
A huge bull shark was spotted swimming in the waves - metres from oblivious surfers.
The drone shots, taken by Paul Dabill, 48, show the huge predator enjoying the Sunday waves in Jupiter, Florida.
Surfers were catching waves near the animal which can weight up to 130kg.
The restaurant owner, from Jupiter, Florida, said: “It was exciting to see a large shark share the water with the surfers.
“The ocean was calm and clear and there was a nice swell coming in and lots of surfers in the water.
“Upon launching my drone, I immediately spotted a large bull shark very close to the beach.
“I followed the shark with my drone as it approached several surfers.
“Fortunately, the shark didn’t seem too interested in the surfers and kept going about its business.”
Bull sharks are usually found in warm, shallow waters around the world.
