Has there ever been or does anyone know of a shark attack in the Louisiana marsh or South Louisiana coastline?

I believe there was an incident in Lake Pontchartrain 10+ years ago of a minor injury from a bull shark.

Without trying to sound insensitive here to the man and his family, but sharks get hungry just like the rest of us and they don’t have rules or should be expected to.

Enter their home at our own peril.

Tamayo would go...

Lets face it. The sharks are fighting back. They want their ocean back

Sure seems that way.

Seeing a massive shark fin pop up next to me while boogie-boarding on Oahu in the late 90s scared me out of the ocean. I caught the next wave back onto shore and said no more. Most likely sharks are always around but it's obviously very rare to get attacked. Still, it was pretty jarring.

I lived in Maui before that. My neighbor was eaten alive by a Tiger Shark. She took swims every morning and one morning she ran into a hungry tiger shark.

frick that.
