Bull Sharks Blamed for Fatal Attack
Up to three bull sharks have been blamed for the fatal attack on a swimmer off Stradbroke Island on Saturday.
That is not good news for Hervey Bay and Maryborough for bull sharks are known to frequent the waters around Hervey Bay and especially down around the Urangan Pier.
Bull sharks are also regularly spotted in the Mary River around Maryborough and further upstream.
