Hello


Last week a local news channel aired a video of a 2 sharks fished out by local fishermen. We are unable to identify exactly what species they are, but at first glance they give resemblance to Bull Sharks.

These sharks were fished off the coast of Beirut, Lebanon, along the Easter Mediterranean Sea.

Based on the news anchorman, the sharks, were;
a. 2 meters (6.5ft) at 250 kg (550 lbs)
b. 2.5 meters (8.2ft) at 200 kg (440 lbs)

Please check out the link below.

We apologize for not being able to post clearer videos or photos but hope someone would have some feedback for us.

Thanks
