Lake Benton-MN Thursday, 8 witnesses were swimming at a beach at Lake Benton, Minnesota, when they had a close encounter with a bull shark. The bull shark was spotted by a boat 25 yards offshore at 1:43 pm at Lake Benton, Minnesota by 8 people when they were they were taking a break from tubing and decided to swim in shallow water No one was attacked or hurt, but the shark was 10 to 15 yards away from them though. 7 of the 8 people were able to get on the beach safe and Christopher Jones 51, was safe on the boat. After they got on the beach the shark circled swam in shallow water boat and then dived back underwater. The witnesses waited on the beach for 25 to 30 minutes and decided to swim as fast as they can to get on the boat with there tube. They went on the boat one by one. The order was Richard Brown 31, Thomas Brown 12, Joseph Brown 10, Charles Brown 39, Jessica Brown 38, Linda Miller 36, David Miller 36, and Lisa Miller 9. The boat was 25 yards offshore. The witnesses said that the shark was about 10-12 feet long. After that they decided to take a boat ride instead. When Christopher said shark I thought he was joking until he saw the fin. 7 of the people were 5 to 10 yards offshore.


Brian Briar, National Resources Department in Marshall MN says, "Bull Sharks are known to be able to swim between salt and fresh water. Although they are able to swim in fresh water typically they are only found in tropical rivers around the world." This is the second reported sighting of a bull shark in Lake Benton today and the fifth one this week. Scientists and authorities are still going to investigate how a bull shark got this far north from the Gulf of Mexico all the way up to a lake in Minnesota and why there have been sightings lately.

    whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

    two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
