Caught on camera: Bobcat dragging shark ashore

MELBOURNE BEACH, Fla. — A  photographer may have taken the nature shot of a lifetime.

John Bailey submitted a photo of a bobcat dragging a shark on shore to a local news station in West Palm Beach, telling them he took the photo at Sebastian Inlet State Park in Melbourne Beach.

Bailey said he thinks he got too close, causing the cat to drop the shark and run off to a nearby forest.

"Initially, it was pretty quick. It looked like it spotted it. It grabbed it, just snatched and it pulled it up. The shark kind of floundered for a while," said Bailey.

Florida Fish and Wildlife officials said that while it seems unlikely, it's been known to happen.
