I really think you'd be interested in this. - Trish Jun 25, 20:40 7
- They talked about that attack briefly. I did see an entire show on it though (forget the show or channel). Very fascinating. - Redmond Jun 25, 20:45 6
  - The New Jersey case was especially interesting because that shark actually travelled up small streams that were barely wide enough to accomodate - Trish Jun 25, 20:55 4
    - Chomp is right! -- nm - Redmond Jun 25, 20:59
    - They just talked about one that attacked a horse in Australia. It got over a 12 foot dam. They did research and found the area flooded one year - Redmond Jun 25, 20:58 2
      - that would have been one surprised horse. -- nm - Reagen Jun 25, 21:13 1
        
        It was a racing horse, and the trainer had it in the river to build it's strength up. - Redmond Jun 25, 21:17
  - Oh wow. They had a bull shark attack in Lake Michigan. And as far up the Mississippi as St. Louis they sighted one. -- nm - Redmond Jun 25, 20:49
One of them almost ate me once -- nm - Coach Jun 25, 20:36
