A mother captures her daughter on video when she flees from a shark on a Hawaii beach

A mother who recorded her 6-year-old daughter playing in the waves on a beach in Hawaii captured the moment when the girl was chased in the water by a shark.

Sheri Gouveia said who was recording a video of his daughter, Anela Rezentes , on Kalama Beach in Kailua, a town on the east coast of the island of Oahu, when the girl suddenly ran out of the water and screamed that she had seen a shark.

The girl said it was a moment she will never forget.

“My soul left my body” said Anela Rezentes, the 6-year-old Kailua native who was chased by a shark. “I saw a shark. I didn’t realize he was behind my back. So I really wanted to run away. She was very scared. ”

“ When she came out of the water, she was hysterical, ”her mother Sheri Gouveia said to KHON-TV . “So I ran, I was looking for it, but I couldn’t see it. I didn’t realize it was actually a shark. That’s what surprised me. ”

When Gouveia reviewed the images of his video, discovered that a shark had actually gotten very close to his daughter.

The experts reviewed the video and said it appears to be a blacktip reef shark, a species known to hunt fish in shallow waters. They said the girl was probably not in danger because that kind of shark got close
