Anglers surf fishing North Carolina’s Outer Banks caught and released a massive great white shark on March 16.

By Tim Balk A Canadian tourist trying to photograph a shark in shallow water at a beach in the Turks and Caicos Islands this month was bitten by the shark and lost both of her hands, officials said.

Avoid swimming in murky water or at dawn or dusk. All of the above. Kick and splash to scare the shark away. Take a lesson from Batman and spray a shark repellent. Swim away as fast as you can.
