One man was hospitalized after taking a photo with a 6-foot lemon shark off the Florida coast in Cayo Costa State Park.
Two men caught the predator while on a shark-fishing trip and say they were preparing to release it back into the water -- when the shark bit one of the men in the leg.
Shawn Meuse had to be airlifted to a local hospital and get surgery.
Meuse is expected to make a full recovery.
He spoke to the ABC station in Florida where he said that even with this near-death experience, it would not deter him from getting back to hunting predators in the future.
