Researchers from the Atlantic White Shark Conservation Society (AWSC) witnessed a shark attack on seals off the Cape Cod peninsula, Massachusetts, USA, Fox News reported yesterday."The team recorded a close-up of the hunt for seals under the water in more than 90 meters from Wellfleet beach , " AWSC said.

The great white shark floated on the water in a few short seconds. When the shark eats the prey, the seal is torn into pieces, causing blood to stain the surrounding waters. Sharks continue to snatch the seal away, dragging a patchy patch of blood.

The video was posted on YouTube last week and quickly caused fever, attracting more than 66,000 views. The number of sharks caught off Cape Cod has increased in recent years due to the rapid and rapid development of gray seal populations due to conservation efforts. Last year, experts estimated that there were 30,000 - 50,000 seals in Massachusetts sea.
