A rare scene where a large crocodile and a bull shark come face to face successfully recorded by a drone. It is also believed to occur only a few meters from the swimmers.
The unusual scene was captured by a drone belonging to Chelsea Brown and her partner Bryce Connole near the Ivanhoe Crossing bridge in Kununurra, Western Australia.
The footage shows a bull shark swimming in the shallow directly towards the gigantic saltwater crocodile.
The predator did not seem to notice the reptile until it was only a few feet away.
Then, the shark changed direction and moved away after seeing the crocodile. Meanwhile, the crocodile was still floating motionless as the smaller predator fled.
The couple, who have been touring Australia for the past nine months, posted the incredible video to their YouTube channel Caravan Adventure Aus on November 11th.
“There were a lot of people fishing and children splashing around in the water – people were oblivious.,” said Chelsea.
“We had been out fishing in knee-deep water, meters from where we (later) saw the croc. We were just copying the locals,” she added.
