Don't stories like this really make you feel good (even though it could have had dire consequences)

The incident took place three weeks ago, but the swimmers kept quiet about the story until yesterday because they feared that the shark would be hunted.

What?!

Next week's story - Family eaten by great white while swimming 100 metres off a beach at their home town of Whangarei, in North Island, New Zealand...

The woman who was killed was not klilled by the same shark.
Sharks have as much right to live as any other species.
I adore dolphins. They are wonderful creatures. They are also very sexually active, participating in group sex and all manner of erotic behaviors. They are aroused by humans as well. I always thought it felt good swimming naked. I guess they do to!
If I could be n animal I would be a dolphin.

I didn't say anything about other people who got attacked. I was sketching a hypothetical scenario...
Also, I believe if a shark eats someone, too bad. We're buggering around in their space, so if they eat us, they're just showing us who is the boss.

The point I'm trying to make is - They are life savers! If they know of sharks in the area, the least they can do is warn the other users of the beach!?

I believe there are numerous stories of dolphins saving drowning people as well?

How do we know that the dolphins were not just protecting their food.
They may have lost their appetite by the time they got rid of the shark!🙂

No Hon, that's Walt Disney.
In reality Dolphins rip humans to shreds. That's why we catch them in Tuna nets, otherwise they eat all the swimmers in Australia.

There was a line in The Simpsons where Marge said something about tuna being brain food, because of all the dolphins that are caught with the tuna 😀

Damn funny.
