Shark Attack Survivor Leah Stewart Grateful for Recovery

🐿️ The Squirrel's Take
A great white mistook her for a seal, but now she's thanking humans—meanwhile, we squirrels still get blamed for stealing birdseed.
💡 Why it matters
The attack highlights ongoing risks of human-shark encounters in Australian waters, influencing beach safety policies and public funding for shark mitigation.

Leah Stewart lost her arm in a great white shark attack at Sydney's Coogee beach in June. She has publicly thanked donors for support during her 'incredibly difficult' recovery, calling it a second chance at life.
