Should be easy to find him, they've got a description - pointy nose, dorsal fin, sharp teeth. One of his mates will probably dob him in. 

Some chum he'd be.

It's not like they eat everyday either.  They eat around once every 6 weeks..  

that figure is based on old research from the 80's     ...  there were some newer studies based on observing metabolic rates of Great Whites that suggested the amount of energy required by great white sharks was equivalent to eating a seal pup every three days.

 The new estimate of white shark RMR has implications for assessing the likely feeding frequency of this species. Using our estimate of RMR, 30 kg of blubber (27.9 MJ kg−1) would provide a 943 kg (the weight of the shark examined by Ref. 12) white shark with sufficient energy for approximately 11.6 days,

the TLDR version can be found here .. warning it will mako your head hurt if you try and understand it :)

This story amused me earlier.

I have a feeling the men posting these comments in the comments section on Facebook didn’t read the full story.

On arrival of the police, the defendant left. She was wearing a pink dress and left her shoes behind. She was spotted walking down Percy Street by CCTV operators. She raised her dress up and lowered her pants to reveal a penis and continued to walk 40 feet with the penis exposed.

"This occurred in public view. Members of the public appeared shocked by the defendant's actions."

:lol:

Nothing wrong with any of it of course, just that I doubt these men would have quite so public had they read the story in full before commenting.

Widespread damage as tornado tears through Kansas
 

Quote

A tornado has been filmed tearing through part of the US state of Kansas, with pictures showing cars crumpled into buildings and homes without roofs.

The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued severe thunderstorm warnings for Midwest states including Kansas, Iowa, Missouri and Nebraska.

In the city of Wichita, the mayor said 50 to 100 structures had been damaged, especially in the suburb of Andover.

Quote

However there are so far no reports of serious injuries.

The Andover City Police Department says roads are blocked due to downed power lines and large debris.

Wichita Mayor Dr Brandon Whipple urged people not to travel.

 

Has anyone seen Dorothy?
