According to Paige Winter’s family, her father had to punch the shark five times before it let the 17-year-old go.
According to the BBC, she has lost some fingers and her left leg from above the knee.
The hospital said she was in a good condition and that she hoped people would “continue to respect sharks in their environment”.
