Large Shark Spotted Flailing in Waters off Florida Coast

The shark was spotted at 2:15 pm on Sunday afternoon and appeared to be moving quickly, creating waves and splashing around.

The Hammerhead or Thresher shark was likely foraging for food due to the large amount of bait fish in the area.

Marine biologists suggest avoiding swimming in the ocean before dawn and after dusk when sharks are more active, and avoid wearing bright swimsuits that may attract sharks.
