Fisherman wants to know what creature bit off giant sharks head

A giant severed sharks head was found in the ocean by a fisherman who says it was chomped by an even bigger creature.

Trapman Bermagui, also known as Jason, was hoping to catch smaller sharks off the coast of Sydney, Australia but instead hooked the decapitated 100kg head.

Just when he thought hed seen it all, Jason found a marlin bill embedded in the mako sharks head, which provided about 35kg of meat.

He said the marlin bill had been wedged in the decapitated head for years which he said demonstrated amazing healing powers of the shark.

Writing on Facebook, Jason said: So this was all we got back of this monster mako. Unfortunately we didnt see what ate it but must of been impressive!

It was a crazy morning of shark fishing. Hoping to catch smaller sharks but just hooked big sharks that got eaten by bigger sharks again.
