A video of a Goliath grouper that devoured a shark in becoming viral. The video shows a 5-foot nurse shark after it was caught by a fisherman's hook. A Goliath grouper suddenly appears and stole the catch with one bite. Here is the account of the people who took the video:
Little backstory: Ran out to the reef at around 8am yesterday and wasn't having much luck. Put out a chum block, set down some blue runners on the reef and waited. Had a 15lb goliath grouper take and brought him up, as I brought him to the boat, the monster goliath shown in the video came and tried to steal him. About 30 minutes later I had about a 5foot nurse shark take and brought him up. As I was dehooking the shark, the goliath came back and inspected but didn't attack him. Finally, about an hour after the nurse shark, I hooked the black tip [shark] behind the boat in the chum slick, and then the hilarity in the video began.
The Atlantic goliath grouper is also known as jewsfish. It is large and can grow up to 8 feet and weigh as much as 360 kilograms.
