'That's Humongous!': Whale Sharks Surprise Boaters Off Florida's Gulf Coast

1 年前

A pod of whale sharks surprised a group fishing off the north coast of Anna Maria Island, Florida, on June 15, when they surfaced near their boat.

Bradenton resident Noah Gunn was fishing with a group when several sharks swam close to their boat – much to the excitement of those on board.

Speaking to WFLA, Gunn said the group swam right up to the boat and one of the sharks appeared to be some 35 to 40 feet long.

“How insignificant something like these animals can make you feel,” he said. Credit: Noah Gunn via Storyful
