Apparently 3 bull sharks were responsible in the attack on a Brisbane woman last week, with one shark chasing rescuers as they dragged the victim’s mauled body back to shore. Sarah Kate Whiley, 21, from Brisbane, is the first to die by shark attack in the 44-year history of Queensland’s controversial Shark Safety Program (why is it controversial?).
The sharks continued to savage her after she lost both arms in the vicious attack just 20 meters from the shore in chest-deep water. Local fisherman, Gordon Dix said the beach was unsafe for swimming. The water dropped sharply into a deep channel and was often murky, with runoff from Moreton Bay emptying into the ocean, particularly after storms. “This was a tragedy waiting to happen,” Mr Dix said.
