GIANT Bull Shark Found in Costa Rica!

A team of researchers encountered a very large bull shark on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica. The shark was more than 13 ft long, which is really big for a bull shark. The largest bull shark ever recorded was only about 11 ft.

The shark was discovered at the mouth of the Rio Sirena, in Corcovado National Park.

The team was able to equip five young sharks with acoustic transmitters that will track their movements (see photo above).

The bull shark, species classified as “near threatened”, is one of the few sharks that can survive in freshwater. I’d hate to run into the new guy in one of those rivers…
