In Thailand, unlike in Australia, South Africa or America, Bull Shark are rarely seen in river. The caught of sharks in river system are often exciting and fascinating. The link in English about Bull Shark caught in river in Thailand could be observed on the link http://www.fishsiam.com/thailand-fishing-bull-sharks-an d-stingrays-1050.html. The piece stimulated life of a young Bull Shark which pass through Mae-Klong River in Ratchaburi Province. The story located close to Chulalongkorn Bridge, which across this river at downtown Ratchaburi. This piece has quoted various theme. The story starts from the sunrise in the morning over Mae-Klong river. In the first section, The piece starts from sunrise scene in the morning. The William Tell theme was being quote because the theme was often used to describe the sunrise scene in Warner-Brother cartoons. Then, the scene moves to the river.
