A 26-year-old man was surfing at Shelly Beach, near Port Macquarie on the country’s east coast late Thursday, when he felt something on his right hand.
The Australian surfer had wounds on his right hand and had a gash on his leg. After he left the water, he went to the Port Macquarie Hospital, where he learned he had been bitten by a shark.
He was treated for the wounds and released.
