SURFER SAVING GREAT WHITE SHARK

            If you think of shark and people you would think ohhhh dear get them separated right away or a big bloody mess, but this article is about a surfer saving a great white shark. This happened on October 4, 2011 on Venice beach. The surfer found the great white shark with a hook stuck in his mouth. The surfer dragged the shark onto the shore. When the surfer pulled the shark out of the water the shark started to wriggle and try to escape According to on lookers the shark was a fairly young.  Everyone on the beach saw the man drag the shark on shore. One man on the beach came over with his fishing gear and put his hand in his mouth and he asking, "Does anyone have a knife?" Once the brave fishermen got the hook out, others came to help drag the shark back into the water it remains unknown if the shark will survive. "At least we rescuers got the hook out and gave it a chance to survive." Pete Thomas wrote. 

            This is related to science because why did the surfer save the shark in the first place? It could be because it was firm on their beliefs or for a scientific purpose? What would you do if you saw the shark half dying? I would probably scream and yell and shout until someone heard me. This is also related to science because animals are very interesting. Why did the shark eat the hook maybe because it had food on it or maybe because it looked funny? As you can see this article is related to science in many different ways.
