The speculation is that the New Jersey shark was a Bull Shark. They are known for their tolerance of fresh water...and ferociousness.

That's true about bulls...they are a common shallow water shark here in FL, do they often occur that far north?
I hadn't heard that speculation, but am interested in it.

I saw a History channel documentary not too long ago about the bull shark that killed several people in a small tidal creek in New Jersey.
