Feb. 20 (UPI) -- A visitor to an Australian channel captured video of two cannibalistic bull sharks coming right up to shore to feast on the carcass of a third shark.

Daniel Poka posted a video to Facebook showing the scene he and his fiance, Samantha, encountered when they went to the shore of the Swansea Channel in Blacksmiths, New South Wales.

Poka said his fiance pointed out three sharks in the water and he started filming just after one of the sharks left the area and the other two came close to shore.

Poka soon realized the two bull sharks were feeding on the carcass of another shark.

"I was like a little kid at the aquarium. I was fascinated by it," Poka told the Newcastle Herald. "It's not all the time you see things like that happen, well not for me anyway."
