(CMR) An elderly woman visiting the Cayman Islands was taken to hospital this morning with what appears to be a barracuda bite around the center of her right arm.
The Department of Environment said the woman was swimming in the area of Colonial Club Condos along 7 Mile Beach when the encounter occurred. The responding DoE Conservation Officer noticed several schools of sprats and some feeding activity in the water at the location.
The public is reminded to be aware of small baitfish jumping out of the water when swimming, as this is usually an indication of feeding activity nearby.
