Why the spaces in the URL, @op?

In the thumbnail it looks like a bunch occurred in Michigan or Pennsylvania... which I'd assume was the result of Northern Tree Sharks populations rebounding after the Penguin Wars.

Stay outta their home and you won’t get attacked. Seriously people are the invaders entering and destroying their home

I've been in alot of those waters and when something about 4 feet wide and very dark (orca maybe) swam right under me I have not gone back in since.

Most of these locations are on the east coast, where orcas are exceptionally rare since there are no established pods in the Atlantic. Florida is listed many times, could it have been a manatee there?

Much farther north though I've been in florida waters many times in the 80's when I was stationed there.

The Lesser Grasslands Tree Shark... one of the few land shark species that can survive the hot humid summers of Oklahoma. Though they generally prefer to pose as pizza delivery people while hunting, some can still be found nesting in oak trees on the borders of roadways where they lure their prey by pretending to be acorns.

If you go back to 1955, there was an (unconfirmed) report of a shark attack in Chicago in Lake Michigan

There was one on the Mississippi, so you're not too far off.

The freshwater sharks that patrol Michigan are actually quite friendly. Not surprised there's no attacks there
