Shark eats seal off Cape Cod beach
The two animals tussled in the shallows off Cape Cod Beach, ending with the shark eating the seal.
A viral video captured a great white shark making a meal of a seal near a Massachusetts beach.
The shark was spotted in the shallows near the short of Race Point Beach in Provincetown on Thursday. The video served as a good reminder that while summer is over, sharks continue to hunt well into the autumn months.
“This is another good reminder that white sharks hunt in shallow waters off the Cape and, based on tagging data, we know that October is a peak season month for white shark activity off the Cape,” the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy wrote on Facebook.
In the video, the water turns red as the shark tears into the seal after a brief encounter.
