Australia kills two sharks after tourist attacks

ENCA: Two large sharks have been killed in Australia after a woman and a girl were attacked at a popular Great Barrier Reef tourist spot.
Both victims — one of them just 12 years old — were still in hospital on Sunday after being mauled in separate incidents earlier this week at the Whitsunday Islands.
Drum lines, which use baited hooks to catch the predators, ensnared two tiger sharks — one 3.3 metres long, a Fisheries Queensland spokesman said.”The shark carcasses will be towed well out to sea for disposal.”
