A shark was found on the streets of Queensland, Australia, shortly after a powerful cyclone pounded the country's northeastern coast this week, immediately inspiring people to make jokes about the sci-fi film "Sharknado" having come to life.

Queensland Fire and Emergency Services posted a photo of the mud-covered bull shark to its Facebook page on Thursday with a warning to followers: "Think it's safe to go back in the water? Think again!"

That's likely for good reason. Bull sharks, which are capable of living in both brackish and fresh water, are extremely aggressive and considered to be one of the leading species behind attacks on humans, according to the International Shark Attack File.
