Police said there have been no further shark sightings in the area. Australian officials recommend beachgoers monitor local shark alerts to stay safe. Swimmers and surfers should also stay inside beach enclosure areas, which include barriers that to deter sharks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There are about 100 shark species in Western Australia, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sharksmart.com.au\/staying-safe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">according to SharkSmart<\/a>, a website run by Australian officials that warns about shark activity and gives tips on how to stay safe.
