Injured shark filmed during documentary, pictures go viral

A series of pictures of an injured shark with bruises have gone viral on social media and has left the netizens surprised, a foreign news agency report.

The report mentioned that the creature got filmed during the shooting of a documentary near Neptune Island in Australia. The region is known for the presence of white sharks in the country.

The shark is given the title of “world’s most battered shark”.

There were long scars all over the shark’s body.

It is being speculated that the great big shark may have suffered injuries after making contact with boat propellers or tuna fish. However, their theories require proper analysis for confirmation.

According to underwater cinematographer Dean Spraakman, the sea creature was not hostile and remained calm.

“You can only speculate what happened there and to be honest no one knows or ever really know what causes that sort of damage to a shark but the poor guy had a bit of a hard time I think,” Spraakman said as quoted by the media.
