On Wednesday, a massive great white shark washed ashore on a Cape Cod, Massachusetts, beach.
A tow truck was dispatched to remove the animal, and another officer followed, according to photos from Nauset Beach posted by the Orleans police department.
According to the police statement, “At least Sgt Elliott only needed to follow the tow truck and didn’t have to wrestle an unruly great white.” “You really never know what kind of call you’ll respond to on any given shift,” the statement read.
According to the charity Atlantic White Shark Conservancy, the shark was initially discovered by the organization in 2022 and was given the name Koala.
According to the organization, there were no clear indications of how or why.
Cape Cod is a well-liked summer vacation spot.
The region is a popular feeding ground for white sharks, according to the nonprofit Atlantic White Shark Conservancy. According to the organization, the most recent human bite occurred in September 2018, when a 26-year-old male passed away.
