According to marine biologists in Miami, "the miniature great whites appear to have been genetically engineered in an unauthorized experiment" and were "inadvertently released into the wild.”

“They school like minnows but have needle-sharp teeth and the strength to pick your bones clean,” one scientist told Your World Report. “They attack and consume flesh with the voraciousness of pirhana.

"We're seeing them offshore in increasing numbers and expect them to make their way into inshore waters around Labor Day.”
