Fisherman Found Dead Suspected Shark Attack KwaZulu-Natal South Coast

A 37-year-old fisherman went missing off the KwaZulu-Natal south coast of South Africa after a suspected shark attack while fishing with two others near Mfazazana. The incident occurred during a sardine run, which attracted multiple sharks, including at least two Bronze Whalers, to the area. One of the fisherman’s friends attempted a rescue but had to retreat when confronted by the sharks. The National Sea Rescue Institute, South African Police Services, and other agencies launched a large-scale search, and the man's body was later recovered with visible shark wounds, prompting a police investigation. This attack adds to a history of fatal shark incidents in South Africa, where 37 people have died from shark attacks in the past 25 years. Meanwhile, in Alaska, the body of a 62-year-old fisherman, David Meyer, who went missing after kayaking, was found weeks later, bringing closure to his family after a prolonged search.
