Seychelles Shark Kills Honeymoon Tourist


Andrea K. -- This article is about a shark, in the Seychelles Indian Islands, who killed a British man in his mid 30's. The British man and his wife were going to the islands for their honeymoon, because they recently got married. A police man states that the shark tore off the mans' arm, and bit off a little bit of his left leg. They say that the shark attacked as soon as the man dived into the Anse Lazio and Georgette beachs, which is two of the many beachs in the Indian Islands that the shark was near. People were shocked to hear about yet another shark attack in Seychelles because earlier this month a french man was killed in the same area.  Reported we suprised to see shark attacks in the Indian Islands since there hasn't been a shark attack in the area since 1963. The Seychelles Maritime Safety Authority issued a swimming ban near the Anse Lazio and Georgette beachs. 
 
It was interesting to read this because i rarely ever see articles about shark attacks, well mainly because shark attacks don't occur that much. Though it interested me, it made me feel sad for his wife because they had just gotten married. The wife was there when the shark attack occured, it must hurt her inside because she couldn't do anything to save him, he already lost enough blood. As i finished the article, i read comments that we're at the bottom of the article, and it fascinated me by how people felt about the incident. Many people said that the shark did it for a cry for help, other say that the shark should be captured. I don't really know what to believe, but all i know is an innnocent man lost his life, and no one deserves that.
