Baby Lemon vs Barracuda!

 
Wow - watch.
 
 
I guess one could say, such is life out there in the wild.
But I'm particularly happy that the little Lemon made it out alive!
 
Anyway, enjoy!

Seychelles - it was a Bull Shark!

Toothy Bull by Sasha.

As so often, Patric has been spot on.
Something was indeed rotten in the state of the Seychelles.
Turns out that the Shark that fatally struck a tourist was not a foreign GW but a local Bull Shark. Gotta love the Shark experts who made the wrong ID - so much for unmistakably!

Story here.
Kudos to Mahmood for providing the correct answers.

The learning curve however appears to be flat.
Despite of Mr. Cliff's totally botched diagnosis, it now appears that the Authorities will continue to rely on "expert" advice from SA's infamous KNZSB and are planning to set up shark nets. As for the ludicrous claim that those would be tailor made (presumably to catch only Bull Sharks), read this.
