For the second time in a month, a shark has killed a surfer near the Mexican beach resort town of Zihuatanejo. Saturday’s fatal attack of a Mexican surfer occurred at a beach called Pantla, Reuters reports. Less than a month earlier, an American surfer was killed by a shark at Troncones beach. They’re the first fatal shark attacks in Mexico in 30 years, according to experts.

Wow I always fell really sorry for people who are victims of shark attacks and fell for the families they leave behind. But Sharks in Mexico almost unheard of! I happen to be a shark buff and I know what I am say when I say Sharks almost never travel that way. It depends on the type of shark however.
