Daughter’s hand removed by Barracuda – Father takes photo

Today, I was listening to the old man station (640 AM Toronto – where they all yell at each other about either society or youth in society) – specifically the Stafford Show (sidenote:  They’re an old man station for so many reasons, the latest being when they were talking about pets being killed by a utility company and one guy called in and said “Tell these whiners to go out and get a job!” … Whether or not they’re unemployed, underemployed or gainfully employed you get the idea.  The question could be about residue on windows and you’ll still get an old man telling kids to get a job, whether its in context or not.)
Anyhow, they were talking about this family fishing off the coast of Florida.  Apparently a barracuda somehow switched from the bait to this guy’s daughter’s hand.  I didn’t hear the whole story, but as you know barracuda’s have a lot of teeth.  According to 640, it turned her hand into something resembling minced meat.
Naturally, they rush from to the hospital.  The only delay taken was for the dad to take one picture, the one shown above.
That’s how you parent!
