A teenager in eastern Australia needed eleven stitches after a small shark bit his leg. It happened in the area where some beaches were closed over the weekend because of a feeding frenzy involving more than 100 sharks. The teen was standing in about a foot of water when he was bitten. The attack follows the weekend closure of Gold Coast beaches after scores of sharks were seen swimming close to the shore.

Fisherman, Dan Dillon, went out to sea searching for a shark, but came back with an 873-pound bluefin, the biggest tuna ever caught on record in Delaware. The 39-year-old Dillon caught the behemoth 40 miles off the southern Delaware coast, using an 80-pound monofilament line, and bluefish fillet as bait.
