Body of Missing Diver (68) Found in Shark's Stomach

pulau reong - Body parts of experienced American diver Colleen Monfore, who went missing two weeks ago, have been discovered in a shark's stomach.

The 68-year-old Monfore was with six friends and a guide on September 26. On that day, she didn't resurface after the dive. For eight days, rescue teams searched for the woman from South Dakota, ultimately suspending the search due to dangerous sea conditions and the slim chance of finding her again.

Two weeks after her disappearance, Monfore was found after a fisherman near East Timor caught and killed a shark in distress. Inside the shark's stomach, remnants of Monfore's body, wetsuit, and swimsuit were discovered.

The fisherman mentioned, 'The shark was caught in an unhealthy condition. I thought it had swallowed plastic or a fishing net. Upon cutting it open, we found the remains of a woman.'

It remains uncertain whether Monfore was actually killed by the shark. Rumors suggest that the experienced diver was attacked and eaten by the animal. However, friends claim the sixty-eight-year-old had passed away days earlier due to a medical problem.
