A link about Australian shark attacks
http://www.taronga.org.au/animals-conse ... st-figures not quite as this hasn't been added
OF course statistics are no comfort to those involved or the guy and his family. :shock:

Always terrible to read this sort of story. The Farm's a popular spot, and there's always plenty of sharks around off the west coast. It IS important to keep in mind just how rare this sort of thing is.
