"Field observations are impossible, because the water is very murky and filled with lots of very large bull sharks and saltwater crocodiles, in addition to [highly poisonous] box jellyfish," he said.

"If we tried to dive there, our life expectancy would be measured in minutes. The only question is which animal would kill us.

One of a handful of sharks you WILL NOT find me in the water with. Un-freaking-predictable. Bulls, Ocean White-Tips, Blues, and open ocean Tigers.

Yep. They've been found all the way up in Indiana in the Ohio River. :laugh2:

They also live in the freshwater's of Lake Nicaragua. They literally swim up stream in rapids like salmon do to get into the lake. I saw a show on them on I think NatGeo.
