Video: Sharknado? Cyclone Debbie Rains Down Sea Creatures in Australia
OutdoorHub Social 03.30.17
Cyclone Debbie pounded the coast of Australia with high winds and rain, but it also brought some sea life on shore.
This 10-foot bull shark was found on a flooded road in the aftermath of the storm. Residents were surprised by the find, but it’s not uncommon for storm surge to sweep sea creatures onto land. “He must’ve gotten caught in a torrent and confused, beached himself on the side of the road,” Mr Calder told news.com.au. “We were pretty amazed, we were turning up to shoot a flooding road, we weren’t expecting to see wildlife as well.”
Think it’s safe to go back in the water? Think again! A bull shark washed up in Ayr. Stay out of floodwater. #TCDebbie #ifitsfloodedforgetit pic.twitter.com/DpP29Va1JG
