A small nurse shark appeared to bite more than it could handle after sinking its teeth into a Florida beachgoer’s arm.
The 23-year-old woman was transported to a Boca Raton hospital on Sunday with the 2-foot-long shark still clamped onto her arm, the Sun Sentinel reported.
Witnesses told the paper the woman might have been to blame for the attack. She was allegedly seen having been seen antagonizing the creature moments before.
“Nurse sharks are like the most humane things ever so, they wouldn’t bite them unless they’re messing with it,” Nate Pachter, who said he witnessed the incident, told the Sentinel.
