Feasting Shark Swallowed Whole in Cruel Twist of Fate

Footage has captured a rarely seen seafloor shark feeding frenzy, that took an unexpected turn when a wreckfish appeared and swallowed one of the feasting sharks whole.

The swordfish’s corpse was nearly finished when the wreckfish appeared in the shot with an entire dogfish shark in its mouth. Report by Anna O’
