    One benefit of living in Minnesota is don’t have to worry about orcas, hammerheads or other sharks while kayaking this weekend.

    Unless some of them figure out how to swim up the Mississippi or get into Lake Superior..

    Bull sharks like fresh water, and they're the most likely species to attack people. Northernmost sighting was in the Mississippi, in Illinois, a couple of hundred miles north of St Louis.

    https://apnews.com/article/Fact-Check-Bull-Sharks-Great-Lakes-701871821910

    Also, this is fun, for the Joe Rogan meatheads:

    A popular Instagram post included a clip of a Dec. 19, 2019, episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience” featuring Forrest Galante, a wildlife conservationist, biologist, and television personality, who raised the subject.

    “Do you know that they actually had documented bull sharks stuck in the Great Lakes?” Galante asked. “It’s pretty amazing. Sharks swimming a thousand miles from Louisiana up rivers and getting stuck in the Great Lakes.” Comedian Joe Rogan, the podcast’s host, replied, “Yes, I heard about that. That is nuts.”

    Overlaid text on the Instagram post, which appears at the beginning of the clip, reads: “SHARKS FOUND IN US LAKES. LISTEN TO THIS.” A caption on the post similarly claims, “Giant Bull sharks found across the USA.” The post received approximately 145,000 likes.

    But experts told the AP that documentation of bull sharks in the Great Lakes does not exist.

    “There have been no confirmed sightings or captures of bull sharks in the Great Lakes that I’m aware of,” said Jeff Tyson, the fishery management program manager at the Great Lakes Fishery Commission.

    A Bull shark would first have to swim up a thousand miles of Mississippi and if they hung around would get frozen.

    Was out kayaking on a tributary of the Mississippi and no orcas or sharks but there were many other creatures out for my blood. The mosquitos are out early here in the upper Midwest
