Enviro-whackos insist sharks do not bite people. They'd call something like this a shark "accident".
Check out this report of a shark biting off a good chunk of leg from Dr. Erich Ritter - a leading "sharks are our friends" nutcase, who was recently attacked and nearly killed by one of his cuddly ocean friends...
Dr. Erich Ritter Recovering From Shark Accident

Ever see that cartoon...Two sharks looking up at a wet-suited swimmer above them. One says, "They taste pretty good once you get past the chewey outer covering..."

DAMN! That has Jimmy Hoffa written all over it!

Here's an excerpt from that report - please take note of how the liberal idiots portray the case as an accident. I've highlighted the "juicy" bits...
Dr. Erich Ritter, the director of Green Marine and one of the world's leading experts on shark behavior, is recovering from the shark accident that occurred April 11, 2002, at the shark research facility on Walker's Cay in the Bahamas. After thousands of encounters with sharks without incident, Dr. Ritter was mistaken bitten by an 8 foot Bull Shark. Based on available information, the Bull Shark was going after a remora that had grabbed a piece of bait fish and then darted under Dr. Ritter. As the Bull went for the remora, it bite into Dr. Ritter's calf. Unable to release its bite, the shark tore off a substantial portion of Dr. Ritter's left calf. Dr. Ritter was immediately flown to a trauma center in West Palm Beach, Florida. He is presently in their intensive care unit, being treated for the wound. Dr. Ritter is recovering nicely, and it is anticipated that he will be hospitalized for from 4-6 weeks.
Notice they don't say that he lost his leg, nor do they admit that the Bull shark didn't spit the "mistake" out, but gladly took it as natural meal.
Normally, a wouldn't wish a shark attack on my worst enemy, but this kook really was asking for it, and with his idiotic attitude, did deserve it.

How about the Larson cartoon where the grandpa shark is telling the little grandchildren sharks?:
"A swimmer in the water is worth two on the beach!"

"A swimmer in the water is worth two on the beach!"LOL...........I miss the Far Side.

"Unable to release its bite, . . ."
Bwahahahahahahaha!!! What a crock. "Gee, sorry mister research diver, but I got my toofus stuck in your wittle calf and I can't let go. I thorry."

Just when the Enviro-weenies thought it was safe to go back into the water....

Jimmy Hoffa?

One more classic Far-Side:
Two huge 6ft, nasty looking cockroaches standing in the bathroom, and one says to the other:
"Shoot, drain's clogged again. Man, I hate to think what might be down there."

Didn't an Aussie Prime Minister end up lost at sea a couple of decades ago? You don't suppose . . .?
To: Lee'sGhost
He's probably lucky all the 'researchers' around him got him out of the water quickly, otherwise that bull shark might have proved a couple theories wrong by showing his 'appreciation' of human flesh, and coming around for a second, possibly fatal, bite.
