| Artificial Reef Attracts Bull Sharks, and other metaphors |
| 2003-08-25 |
| An artificial reef created to improve marine life is attracting bull sharks to the water off Coral Cove Park, forcing officials to close the beaches almost daily. What if if places like France were reefs... "These sharks are territorial," lifeguard Rick Moore said Sunday. "What’s happened is you have an accumulation of tropical fish." The limestone-boulder reef was created earlier this summer to draw fish to the area just south of Coral Cove Park. ...with attractive environments... Since then, lifeguards have called swimmers out of the water for periods ranging from 30 minutes to all day because of the sharks. and the terrorist/militant/freedom fighters... Palm Beach County Ocean Rescue officials said the county’s parks had previously closed sporadically for shark sightings but never as consistently as in the past month at Coral Cove. ...were just oppressed minorities... "If they want to swim in our swimming area we just kind of turn our swimming area over to them," district supervisor Chuck Price said. ...with special cultural needs? Nah, could never happen. |
