dangerous animal
CANBERRA, Australia (FNN 24/7) -- Authorities called for calm as they hunt for a 20 foot shark that tore a man snorkeling in half off the country's west coast.
"This is a tragedy, but should not be cause for panic," said wildlife official, Steve Helmes. "We can look at this and say the snorkeler is half eaten or we can be optimistic and say he is half NOT eaten."
"Of course both halves are dead, so we will continue to hunt this dangerous animal," Helmes said.
No worries Mate !
