On Saturday, February 22, 2025, a 29-year-old man was attacked by a shark while snorkeling near The Wrecks Walking Track off Moreton Island, north of Brisbane, Queensland. The incident occurred shortly after 3:00 pm. The man sustained injuries to his abdomen and leg and was airlifted to Princess Alexandra Hospital in stable condition. This marks the second shark attack in Moreton Bay within a month; earlier in February, 17-year-old Charlize Zmuda tragically lost her life following a shark attack near Bribie Island. Despite these incidents, local tourism remains unaffected, with visitors continuing their activities. Authorities are reviewing shark management programs to enhance ocean safety.
