      I feel can feel both sad for the seal and happy for the great white shark. I guess that's what comes from so many years of watching documentaries and going out into nature. I can look at such incidents clinically, like a scientist.
      I once witnessed a successful Orca attack on a juvenile sea lion while whale watching. Whale watching is one of my favorite things to do, but I haven't been able to go in several years. Over the course of many years, I've seen a variety of fantastic cetaceans: blue whales, gray whales, humpback whales, killer whales, Pacific white-sided dolphins, long-beaked common dolphins, Northern right whale dolphins, Risso's dolphins and harbor porpoises. I also enjoy watching easier-to-find creatures like seals, sea lions, sea otters, sea birds, crustaceans, sea stars, fish, anemones, jellies, etc.
      I've never "scored" a great white shark. It's one of my dreams to see one...from the safety of a boat. ;) The people who were on the beach are lucky to have seen such a wonderful predator functioning in its appointed role.
      I have seen white shark behavior AFTER the fact. After I got home from a whale-watching trip, I inspected my photos. I'd taken a picture of the breakwater and its contingent of sea lions. One of the sea lions in the picture had a large scar on its body: tooth impressions in a crescent. Only one creature could do that kind of damage to a sea lion: the awesome great white shark. The sea lion was lucky. I bet he was much more careful after his run-in with such a magnificent predator.

      Statistically you’ve got more chance of dying in your car driving down to the beach than being attacked and killed, especially by a Great White which humans are not it’s natural food source or prey, which explains why so many people survive Great white attacks. They bite divers once thinking it’s Seal due to being covered in a dark or black swimsuit & once they bite and find out it’s all muscle fibre and sinew not lovely fat and blubber which is what they like off the Seals they immediately back off and leave humans alone. They actually don’t find us that tasty. That’s why you hear of these one bite attacks. They bite, discover it’s not a Seal and lose interest. Trouble is that one bite can cost you your life..

      Great Whites are responsible for the majority of fatal attacks on humans. Predominantly more so than other species. They more often than not come back after their first bite. The sheer size & power of that first bite is enough to kill a human. They tend to let you bleed out before they come back for more.

The students were 20 yo airforce women. After old mate Giant shark made our first dive a bit too interesting ,, they got back in the water and finished their course. To their credit. Very brave girls.

    Sharks can and will come in very close to shore, in fact I heard a story of one guy who was chased onto the beach, can't recall the shark species but it could have been a bull shark and it ran itself aground onto the beach trying to get the guy! So just remember folks, a shark will do anything to get you if it really wants you. Most sharks will pick out an individual on purpose and will ignore a whole beach of swimmers just to get YOU. So take care out there and be vigilant about your surroundings. That said when in the water you are practically a sitting duck, they can move so much faster than you can. Reaching speeds of up to 35miles and hour can really make it difficult to outrun or outswim a shark when it finds you "interesting".

    When I was a young lad, some 60 years ago, we often swam in the waters of popular beaches, and we did so with no fear. No fear because the beaches were always patrolled by spotter planes, who flew above and around the waters, watching for sharks etc. If one was spotted, the plane would let out a siren for all to hear, and we would just exit the water till we got the all-clear. Wonder why this system was ended, was it too expensive to protect the people? or did the powers that be actually no longer give a stuff. Seems a lot of similar traits have appeared over the years.

If you look, as the waves washed over the poor thing, it wasn't moving but just being carried out and it never tried to swim or get away. There was no "attack".

      Not quite. Sharks are inherently curious creatures, and they may often approach humans they encounter in the water either to just get a look at them, or they may perform what's called a "bump and bite" where they bump into the person/creature/thing they're investigating and bite it to see if it's prey or something else. Most instances of reported shark attacks are of this variety, and the attack usually doesn't go beyond that point as the creature typically loses interest. However, there are certainly cases where it does progress from this point, or the interaction to begin with was a deliberate attack.
      There are actually a lot of instances where sharks will approach humans swimming or surfing in the water that ends with both parties going their separate ways. A good channel that shows how often this actually happens is TheMalibuArtist, who uses a drone to capture aerial footage of Great White Sharks, and there are of lot of clips that involve human-shark interactions.

Failed because every single place around the world where shark tagging has been implemented the shark attacks have shot up instead of reduced which was the intention of the whole program. Thats right the opposite has occurred making beaches and the ocean more dangerous for humans than safer. Every one of these programs were implemented at the enormous cost of Billions of dollars of wasted tax payer dollars. So for the sake of the sharks and humans affected it needs to be reversed and tags removed from these sharks immediately. The proven ability to safely monitor sea life with sonar at 500m to 100m is nearly perfected which not only warns APPs in real time it can also distinguish what type of sea life is moving around down to the species of shark. The unfortunate mistake is that Governments have rushed at any scientifically unproven shark shield solution over the last 2 decades. But now they do not wish to admit that they were wrong and that their precious tagging solution has dismally failed with many unnecessary deaths. The 5 Major points of why shark tagging has failed 1. The sharks are cruelly cut or stabbed with Transducers and now either have rotting insides or rotting fins. (note - google rotting shark fins from shark tags). 2. These transponders have lithium batteries that last up to ten years and are unproven to handle the pressures of big sharks deep sea dives and could cruelly rupture inside the shark at these depths. 3. These transponders send out at 69Hz which interferes with all sea life sending out a disturbing noise to them and most of all warning them of the sharks presence. 4. This makes it extremely hard for these very large ravenous sharks to feed and they in turn look for slow moving prey to eat for their meals - SLOW MOVING PREY LIKE HUMANS AND WHALE CARCASSES. 5. The noise coming off shark tags interferes with nature and animals. It is getting worse as now the oceans floors is become littered with 10 year life battery transponders sitting on the sea floors from scientists going to exotic places and tagging exotic fish which die and when eaten the transponder falls to the ocean floor still pinging away interfering noisily with animal life in the ocean again whilst wasting more billions of tax payers dollars.

      @@donm9675 As if to imply both aren't possible. Come now, Don. Good grammar lends to the validity and contextual underpinnings of a given message. It's essential to properly spell and enunciate to the best of our ability because it all stems back to the knowledge base and credential of a given individual.
      If I go to my doctor and he misspells every third word, then there's an implicit undertone to garner and that he or she has spent upwards of ten to twelve years in a grad and post-grad capacity yet still can't even deduce the differences between "then" and "than," "to" and "too," "their," "there," and "they're," "accept" and "except," "your" and "you're," "affect" and "effect," "allude" and "elude," and so on down the grammatical line. What else has he or she failed to glean in terms of medical faculty??? Imagine misspelling a prescribed medication or surgical procedure??? Yikes!!! LOL
      Would you want your child reading from books where every other words was misspelled? Why do we shun competence instead of embracing it? Why do we justify our shortcomings instead of shortening our justifications? When learning, knowledge and intellect become moot points, then we've truly backslidden as a society. Instead of making excuses by implying people can't express good taste along with proper grammar, why not seek to better ourselves by offering all of the above? Why do you embrace good taste and yet shun spelling? Why not the other way around? Why not both? Why not neither? See the point? Why pick and choose when we can offer all of the above? Selectivity makes for partiality in terms of the skills we opt to acquire. Be the best you can be or why waste time settling for a D+ life?
      It's one thing to be a bad speller, but it's an entirely different thing when we make excuses for not seeking to become a better one, if not only for our own piece of mind. Do you aspire to be the worst at things you engage in or the best...or even better for that matter?
      Typos notwithstanding, we can all benefit by honing our grammar, punctuation and spelling skills. Imagine applying for a literary, journalistic or editorial job when your grammar is subpar? What are the odds you'd get that job? Not very good, Sir. Aspiration is a good thing, excuses not so much. Be well.

How long would granny have lived had she not smoked four packs per day? How good would her health have been along the way to her demise had she not smoked four packs per day?
