Shark Bite Victim - Pohoiki Boat Ramp

[punafish]

On a similar note, an acquaintance in Kona just informed me that Hapuna Beach has been shut down due to a Tiger Shark spotting. I read somewhere that statistically you are more likely to die from a coconut falling on your head than a shark attack. (That's why I always hear the Jaws soundtrack in my head while mowing my lawn around my coconut trees.) But man, in the past few weeks I've read about several shark attacks in the islands...and yet, never once have I read a story about casualties from coconut attacks.

But seriously, sure hope the victim is okay.
