Bull shark found beached ashore Lake Okeechobee

So I have heard of Bull sharks sauntering up the Mississippi. It makes sense.....it's a river.....the mouth opens at the Gulf of Mexico........so the shark gets a little confused, but how the bloody hell does one end up in a lake?

After a thunderstorm in Okeechobee, Fla. a bull shark carcass was found washed ashore at Lake Okeechobee. No one is sure how the shark go there. Bull sharks, who can live for a while in fresh water, have been found up to 1,750 miles up the Mississippi River in the USA and 2,500 miles up the Amazon River in Peru.
