Description:
Hudson Anthony was bitten by a shark, likely a lemon shark, while on vacation with his family. He was standing alone waist deep in a school of minnows when he felt an intense pain. The shark had come up behind him.
Based on the wound doctors believe the attack was from a 4 to 5 foot sand shark. The cut required two layers of stitches and eight stitches on top.
The attack earned the eleven year old the nickname "shark bait" at his Day School.
