New York and Florida have also seen their fair share of sharks last week.
A 17-year-old girl from Perry, Florida was mauled by an estimated 9-foot shark on Thursday.
Her brother tried to help fight off the predator, but she still suffered a loss of her quadriceps in her right leg, as well as massive nerve and vascular damage.
The girl's mother told The Sun in an exclusive interview, that her daughter "tried to pry the shark off of her own finger and that's an instinct that you can't give advice on - that's a survival instinct."
Another shark attack occurred on Monday at New Smyrna Beach in Florida.
The shark bit a surfer's left foot after he fell off his surfboard.
The man was taken to the hospital with minor, non-life-threatening injuries.
A lifeguard from Smith Point Beach in New York had to fight off a 5-foot shark when it attacked him during a training exercise last week.
"I ripped back and just started hammer-punching, and I felt the rubber texture of the head. It felt like the size of a basketball," the lifeguard recalled.
