Have you heard about the shark in Lake Ontario? A video posted July 10 of what appeared to be a bull shark swimming off the shore of Wolfe Island has gone viral. It is possible for a shark to come into Lake Ontario via the St. Lawrence River. Minister of Natural Resources Bill Mauro said until the beast is properly identified, we need to make the public aware there is possibility of a shark in the lake. In a news release issued Wednesday, Discovery Channel producers revealed the shark was not in fact real but actually an incredibly life-like prosthetic model used to promote the annual program, Shark Week.
