I was taking photos and scared it. It ran into to me and bit me on the nipple and wouldn’t let go. Here’s the news article https://www.the-sun.com/news/2169452/snorkeler-attacked-nurse-shark-nipple/
Big shoutout to Rich, Chris, and Billy at Caloosa Marina for getting it off of me.
Hurt a lot.

Os pescadores do pier me autorizaram a fotografar o que haviam capturado. Me entristeceu o sofrimento do animal, porém, registrei para termos o ponto de localização da ocorrência espécie.
