Nobody yelled "Fore!" at a Southern California golf course when a 2-foot-long shark dropped out of the sky and flopped around on the 12th tee.


The 2-pound leopard shark was apparently plucked from the ocean by a bird.


No one was teeing up when the shark fell Monday afternoon, although some golfers had just left the area.


A course marshal, who makes sure players maintain an appropriate pace, saw something moving around on the tee and went to investigate.


He found the shark bleeding with puncture wounds, where it seems the bird had held it in its grasp.


The marshal and employee Bryan Stizer wanted to help the small shark, so they stuck it in a bucket of water. Then somebody remembered it wasn't a fresh water animal, so they stirred up some "homemade sea water" using sea salt from the kitchen.
