## Resource

A woman is fighting for life after a brutal shark attack at Coogee Beach, requiring an arm amputation and ongoing life support. Her brother has launched a fundraiser to aid her recovery and support her toddler daughter, while the family thanks the paddle boarder who saved her and emergency responders for their swift action. As they request privacy, the incident reignites debate over shark control — with former PM Tony Abbott pushing for culls, but marine experts and NSW Premier Chris Minns rejecting it, citing ineffective outcomes and legal protections for great whites. In response, drones are now monitoring the beach to enhance safety without harming marine life. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
