The fisherman in the video was treated as an emergency by a park ranger, confirming that his wound was consistent with a shark bite. He was then transported to Jackson South Hospital by the Miami Dade Fire Department. It is currently being maintained with a reserved forecast.
“While shark bites are extremely rare in Everglades National Park, we always advise visitors to exercise caution around wildlife in the park.a statement from the national park said.
