Live Shark Discovered In Florida Swimming Pool (Video)

Pool owners are used to dealing with unwelcome visitors, from algae to ducks. Sharks are rarely an issue. 

But a live five-foot blacktip shark was found last week in the pool of the Mariner’s Cay condominium in Hypoluxo, according to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. Wildlife officers removed the shark from the pool and released it into the Intracoastal Waterway. 

The woman who discovered the shark said she saw two young men running from the pool. Video surveillance cameras were found around the pool area. The incident is under investigation. 

Blacktip sharks are among the most common species in coastal South Florida. They are responsible for a large number of bites, typically unintentional incidents in murky water in which they mistake a hand or foot for a fish.
