The bull shark is renowned as a killer, a river and canal dweller.

Maybe, but the flooding itself has killed more than that bull shark has.

Without doubt. The shark's just another risk for the rescue workers.

Bull sharks are notorious for attacking people. nasty pieces of work. Bad enough what people/rescuers/etc are dealing with without adding sharks (and i heard the was a croc floating around too) into the equation

Army/police should have permission to shoot looters on sight as far as i'm concerned, low life bastards. Although i did like the mayor of Ipswich's suggestion of using them as flood markers!

The death toll is rising, now at 13 and predicted to go higher

Sharks are cool though. Hopefully it doesn't have the opportunity to get into trouble. In my opinion crocs and gators are worse than sharks. Most sharks take a bite and swim off. Crocs and gators get a hold of you and take you down for a death roll. There's not much of a chance to survive that.

Poor Brazil's copping it worse at the moment, 250+ dead so far in floods and mudslides.

Some of these bullsharks, it would only take one bite to kill. Bullsharks are aggressive and i highly doubt they take one nibble, they have certainly killed before. Regardless its just another thing the people of the area dont need!

I think i'd rather the croc actually, least it will kill you fairly quickly. Being bitten significantly by a shark, floating in filthy flood waters when you have no idea how long til rescue would be horrid. The blood would attract more said sharks in the vicinity also
