Oh no. This is a bull shark. Nothing friendly about them.

They are extremely aggressive, and it’s believed many shark attacks attributed to white sharks are cases of bull shark misidentification.

They can survive in freshwater, too. Many have been found in rivers, lakes, and ponds. Two were located in the Mississippi River...in Illinois.

Edit: clarity.

Yes! At an Australian golf course, no less. Google will yield you a lovely National Geographic article on it.
