Australia has seen two shark attacks in as many days, but at least one expert is saying the incidents don’t warrant panic.
Tadashi Nakahara, a 41-year-old Japanese man, died Monday morning after a shark bit off his legs and ripped his board in half, according to reports. The incident occurred when Nakahara was waiting for a wave 30 feet off Shelly Beach in New South Wales, Australia. It was Australia’s sixth shark-related death within 12 months, according to the Australian Associated Press.
