• Moose-eating shark rescued in Newfoundland harbour
    10 replies, posted
[quote]Two quick-thinking men on Newfoundland's northeast coast managed to save a Greenland shark from choking to death on a large piece of moose hide this past weekend. Derrick Chaulk said he was driving down a road by the harbour in Norris Arm North this past Saturday when he saw what he thought was a beached whale. When Chaulk went closer to investigate, he realized it was a shark, which he estimated was about 2.5 metres long, and weighed about 115 kg. The animal was still alive and had a large chunk of moose hide protruding from its mouth. "It [the moose] had the fur and all the liner on it — it was about two feet long, maybe."[/quote] Our Canadian cousins always fuck up. [url]http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfou...bour-1.2434102[/url]
People seeing sharks as animals that need to be conserved is definitely a good thing! I'm glad they saved it.

Where the hell did a shark find a moose to eat
[QUOTE=plants;42963623]Where the hell did a shark find a moose to eat[/QUOTE] Article makes it sound like the corpse was discarded near the water. But now why would a moose corpse be discarded near the water?
I had trouble imagining how a shark could eat a moose. Sad for the shark chocking.

That's why their legs are so long, so they can wade. They can also swim very well too. Normally they stick around swamps but I guess this one just got confused.
