A 34-year-old woman has recalled punching a great white shark during an attack at Coogee Beach in Sydney.
Leah Stewart was swimming in the morning when she was mauled by the shark in June. She described the experience as being like fighting a dinosaur.
The incident involved a great white shark and took place at the popular Sydney beach. Stewart’s account focuses on her response during the attack, when she punched the animal.
No further details about the extent of Stewart’s injuries, the shark or any subsequent beach safety measures are provided in the available material.
