A tragic discovery was made in a giant tire that lay on a beach in Sydney, Australia.
Yahoo News reports that the tire may have originated from a tractor or a truck but it sat along the shoreline of a reef submerged in water for days until volunteers decided to remove it.
When the volunteers removed the tire, they found 100 dead animals trapped inside it.
The dead animals were all marine creatures and included sharks, rays, and fishes.
Investigators believe that the marine creatures swam in during the high tide and were trapped in the tire as it became filled with sand from the high tide.
The number of dead animals found in the tire could have filled a small aquarium.
