help please read, important... life or death

I know this is short notice but does anyone know someone that has a public phicillity that can take 2 sharks today. There is a bonnet head and a black nose. The black nose is about 3-4 feet long and the bonnet is about 2 feet. If they are not taken today they may die. They are in miami. Sorry moderators but I didnt know where to post this and I am concerned

You're in FLA. Try writing to a club in your area and seeing if you can get somebody there.
A Rubbermaid stock tank might stave things off.

Whatever you do, don't release them. They might have picked up diseases, and I'm not sure they native to your area.

Don't go to the Coast Guard with this. We do not service animals, only enforce fishing regulations. We sometimes aid out scientist with animal issues, but the scientists would be the ones to call. Fish and Wildlife might help, but maybe a local college that has a good marine biology program could help out.
