The 3-4 meter shark left her with severe injuries, prompting immediate aid from bystanders and a helicopter evacuation. This follows a deadly attack in WA last month and a troubling spike in incidents—including four in NSW within 48 hours—fueling calls for stronger safety measures. While drones patrol 14 other beaches, Coogee remains unprotected, leading officials to deploy extra surveillance at nearby Bondi and Bronte. Surf clubs statewide now carry shark bite trauma kits as efforts intensify to prevent future tragedies and improve emergency response.
