A surfer mauled by a shark on Monday off southwestern Australia managed to swim to shore despite serious injuries to both of his legs, an official and a witness said.
Alejandro Travaglini was surfing at Gracetown around 8am when he was attacked, St. John Ambulance spokesman Dennis Bertoldo said. The Argentinian-born 37-year-old was treated on the beach by paramedics before he was flown by helicopter 250 kilometers (160 miles) to a hospital in the city of Perth, Bertoldo said.
The hospital described the victim's condition as stable.
The attack prompted the World Surf League to postpone the nearby Margaret River Pro international surfing contest for about an hour.
Organisers had deployed additional shark-spotting drones and jet skis when the competition resumed to ensure competitors' safety, league deputy commissioner Jessi Miley-Dyer said.
