Hai attack shaken Queensland: Young people dies tragically in the sea

Bribie Island, Queensland, Australien - In the Australian Queensland, a terrible shark attack has challenged the life of a 17-year-old swimmer. The incident occurred late Monday afternoon in front of the Bribie Island sand island, about 100 meters from the banks of Woorim Beach, a popular destination for bathers, surfers and fishermen. Despite the rapid use of rescue workers, it was not possible to help the young people because they had suffered “catastrophic” injuries to the upper body, as reported.

This tragic attack is the third shark attack within just three months in Queensland, which increases the concerns regarding the safety of swimmers and water sports enthusiasts in the region. Already in December a man was fatally injured in the javelin fish near Humpy Island in the Great Barrier Reef, as well as another fisherman who was attacked near Gladstone a few weeks earlier and suffered serious injuries to the arms and hands, explained t-online.de .

The circumstances and the type of the responsible shark have so far been unclear. This incident again draws attention to the increasing figures to shark attacks in Australia and the need to ensure safe swimming conditions. In view of these incidents, public awareness of the dangers in the water is greater than ever.
