TFA doesn't specify, did the shark live?


Or end up eating the guy?

/These are important details

Is there a shortage of hammerhead sharks? Are they endangered?

If not, why the hell are they trying to save it?

/They should of had a BBQ instead.

Amazing creatures, and willing to fight to the bitter end regardless of circumstances. They will still inhabit the earth long after man has killed himself off.

"We tried to put it back in the water three times, but the waves kept bringing it back in," he said.

"It went for me twice, but once I got hold of its dorsal fin and its tail, it was OK. When I let go of the dorsal fin, it had a go at me."

Lifesavers tried several times to push the shark back into the surf but the waves kept washing it back on to the beach.



repeated info?? der fred..

From the longer article, After assessing the shark's wounds, the vet said it could not be saved and put it down.

The hammerhead, about 1m long
, just a baby.

Different companies it seems, Wiki Sea World (new window), For the unrelated US theme park chain of a similar name, see SeaWorld.

Tho our Sea World looks similar to the American ones, but I've never been to the American ones so I could be wrong.

Insert obligatory laser-beams reference here.

Okay, that's over with.

Meh. Hammerheads are really not that big of a deal. Even the big ones. I'm really only scared of Whites, Tigers and Bulls. All the rest will leave you alone pretty much if you leave them alone. The only reason this guy was getting pissy was because he was hurt, and they were farking with him (in his eyes).

FilmBELOH20 is right. Most sharks are pretty timid. I dive with sharks all the time and generally they swim off as soon as they see you. I did see schooling hammerheads at the Barrier reef, hundreds of them swimming in one direction. Very eerie. Its te great hammerheads you have to look out for.

Lets push it back into the surf so it can swim up the beach and bite someone else.....

You know why, eh? What's the first thing you do when you get out of the public pool. That's right, hit the showers.
