Shark trapped in South Korean canal draws huge crowds

A 3.5m shark trapped in a canal in Busan, South Korea, has become an unlikely attraction, drawing more than 600,000 visitors since it was first spotted on Sep 18. Experts believe the bronze whaler shark, nicknamed Bukang-i, followed prey into the canal and was unable to find its way back to sea. Authorities have made several attempts to guide the shark out, but it remains in the waterway. Its ability to feed and move is restricted, raising concerns about its condition the longer it remains trapped. #southkorea #southkoreanews #busan Subscribe to our channel here: https://cna.asia/youtubesub Visit our website: https://cna.asia Download our app: https://cna.asia/app Get our editors' picks of stories via chat apps: Telegram: https://cna.asia/telegram WhatsApp: https://cna.asia/whatsapp Follow us on these platforms: https://www.facebook.com/channelnewsasia https://www.instagram.com/channelnewsasia https://www.tiktok.com/@channelnewsasia
