A family enjoying the summer weather along the Tennessee River made an unusual discovery recently when they found a small shark in the water, and it appears the animal didn’t make it to the region alone.
The shark, a three-foot-long specimen that appeared to be a spiny dogfish, was found by an unnamed family on Tuesday at Talucah Landing. According to WHNT, they then contacted authorities, and Wildlife Conservation Officer Jay Lowery was dispatched to examine the shark.
“[Tuesday] we had a call that came to our district office – we were kind of a little skeptical at first,” he said.
