Rescuers save beached Greenland shark with an appetite for … moose?



It wasn’t exactly CPR, thankfully for rescuers, because the victim was a large shark choking on a massive chunk of moose flesh, but it was a heroic effort nonetheless.

The bizarre incident occurred on Newfoundland’s northeast coast. Derrick Chaulk was driving on a harbor road in Norris Arm North when he spotted a large creature on the beach.

He thought it was a whale, but it turned out to be an 8-foot Greenland shark, with a hunk of flesh and fur sticking out of its mouth.

Upon closer inspection Chaulk noticed that the shark was still alive.

Fortunately, another local named Jerry Ball arrived and he was the one who went to work on the business end of the shark.
