The video, captured by Kenvor Cothey, shows a white shark biting a seal, which manages to get away, at a beach on High Head Road in Truro. The shark can then be seen struggling to get back into deeper water, according to the post.

“This is what we believe may be happening when white sharks strand on Cape Cod,” the conservancy said in the post.
