Shark

The top dogs of the oceanic food web have been overfished to the point of collapse, a troubling new study says.
Police said they shot at the shark after seeing it linger along the shoreline for almost a half-hour after the attack.
Biologists said the discovery could be a first along a long stretch of Indian coastline.
“It looks like it’s going for my leg and it’s changed its mind,” the former Australia pro surfer said.
"I did what anyone would have done," he said. "The shark was latched onto her leg. I just jumped into the water."
Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water.
