7 Year Old Girl
A 7 year old girl was bitten by a shark while playing in 2 feet of water off Hilton Head Island in June 2006. The girl was bitten on her foot and buttocks, thankfully the injuries where not life threatening. The authorities first thought the girl was stung by a sting ray. The doctors who treated the girl found a shark tooth embedded in her foot.
An average of three shark bites are reported on South Carolina beaches each year, said Charles Farmer, a 38-year veteran of the DNR who wrote a book about sharks.
The last fatal shark attack off the island occurred in 1883, according to the Florida Museum of Natural History.
