The six-foot blue shark was discovered in shallow water in the River Fal on the National Trust’s Trelissick estate between Truro and Falmouth on Wednesday. Blue sharks are one of several shark species known to migrate from the Atlantic to the west coast of Cornwall during the summer months. However, experts warned that the shark should be “given a wide berth” because the animal could be injured and stressed. Dan Jarvis, of the charity British Divers Marine Life Rescue, said his team were monitoring his condition because of fears the shark could become disoriented.
“Ignore it and give him a big berth”
Jarvis said: “This is a real concern for us because they don’t usually come this close to beaches like this. Our concern is that it is injured or unwell and may need some medical attention. “Our advice is to ignore it and give him a lot of distance. He might just take a look and swim when he’s happy, but if he’s not well, we don’t want to cause him any more stress from people going into the water and interfere with it.” Dog walker Harry Gooby, who filmed the shark, said it appeared the creature was trying to get to shore. Guby said: “I waited less than a minute when a shark swam very close to the shore and at one point put its snout on the beach. “His whole head came out of the water and he nearly dived up to his neck on the beach.”
