Bull shark found in Brisbane, Australia swimming enclosure

A bull shark (Carcharhinus leucas) managed to find its way into a swimming enclosure at Macleay Island off Brisbane (Queensland, Australia) according to a Ten News video report. The shark was estimated to be 5′ (1.5 m) in length. The net enclosing the swimming area is not secured to the sea bed, so the shark was able to swim underneath it.

The shark was eventually led out of the enclosure after a two-hour effort, with all parties involved unharmed.
