Teen Shark Bite Near Galveston

A teen sailor suffered a brutal shark bite off Galveston, Texas, after trying to pull the shark onto his boat—prompting a frantic Coast Guard rescue. His dad applied a tourniquet on the spot, and medics added a second one before airlifting him to a hospital. The boat had broken down earlier, adding to the chaos. Globally, 2023 saw 65 unprovoked shark attacks—with the U.S. leading at 25 cases. This follows a wave of attacks along Australia’s coast, reminding us: the ocean’s power is never predictable.
