A small Black Sea shark with a length of about 90 cm got stranded on the Burgas beach. It was spotted by people and was immediately returned to the sea, BNT reported. Black Sea sharks are harmless, experienced fishermen say. According to them, there is no case of a person being attacked by such a shark, which mainly feeds on crabs and small fish. Black Sea sharks live approximately 40-50 meters away from shore, but it is not unusual for them to reach it. "It is possible that the shark was chasing fish and did not realize that it had reached the shore," fishermen told BNT.
