Update to previous shark attack post!
"He said the great white population was not growing but shifting around the world for reasons that scientists do not fully understand." YO, scientists, what is there to understand that You don't know? All species are shifting and making changes based on the "shift" that is underway and intensifying as time goes! Don't You people read anything besides your own bs?

Sydney, Australia Shark Attack

Swimmer Pokes Attacking Shark in Eye
SYDNEY, Australia (May 12) - An Australian swimmer says he survived a mauling by a 16-foot shark by wrestling with the beast, finally getting free by poking it in the eye.
The shark, believed to be a great white, seized Jason Cull by the left leg as he was swimming at Middleton Beach in southwestern Australia on Saturday.
The shark was one of three that swimmers reported seeing at the beach Saturday. Officials closed the beach after the attack.
From his hospital bed where he was treated for deep lacerations, Cull, 37, told reporters Sunday he saw a shadow moving in the water just before the attack and mistook it for a dolphin.
"It was much bigger than a dolphin when it came up," Cull said. "It banged straight into me -- I realized what it was, it was a shark.
"I sort of punched it, and it grabbed me by the leg and dragged me under the water," he said. "I just remember being dragged backwards underwater. I felt along it, I found its eye and I poked it in the eye, and that's when it let go."
Tom Marron, a spokesman for the lifeguards at the beach, said volunteer lifesaver Joanne Lucas leapt into the water to help Cull after swimmers at the beach started panicking when they saw Cull struggling.
"She heard the cries and splashing and knew they needed assistance and just went straight in," Marron said.
"She got hold of the injured swimmer and brought him back to shore," he said. "There was a fairly comprehensive mauling of his left leg, lost a lot of his calf, severe lacerations."
Last month, a shark killed a 16-year-old surfer off Australia's eastern coast.
Uh, "YOU people do know that YOU are Australia right?" If there were THREE sharks in the area at the time, "why were any of YOU in the water?" It's not even summertime yet and there have already been 4 major shark attacks reported so far that have left 3 fatalities. Should be an interesting beach season. Be careful!

Attacked By Saltwater Crocodile & Shot!

Man saved from croc shot in error
A man has been accidentally shot by a rescuer who was trying to free him from the jaws of a crocodile in northern Australia.
The victim, in his late 20s, was attacked by the reptile near a popular tourist spot on the Mary River south-east of Darwin.
He was flown to hospital by helicopter for emergency surgery for bite and bullet wounds.
He is currently in a stable condition in hospital.
Crocodile attacks and shootings are rare in Australia.
To suffer both at once is - to say the least - unfortunate.
Jason Grant was collecting crocodile eggs at a remote reptile farm when he found himself locked inside a giant set of jaws.
For a few terrifying moments the animal wildly shook its victim before the intervention of a fellow worker.
He fired two shots at the saltwater crocodile. One hit the target, while the other struck the arm of his stricken colleague.
It was enough though to bring the drama to an end.
The injured man was flown to hospital in Darwin, where he is recovering.
Remember the old blues song, "Born Under A Bad Sign"? Well, the sign must have fallen on this guy. Get nailed by a saltwater croc and shot at the same time? Are YOU kidding me? At least he gets to live to tell about this. Just goes to show, "when it isn't your time to go, YOU wont"!
Kharma Rules,
