Get attacked by a shark and get written up
I found this article about a cookie-cutter shark attack on a great white shark interesting:
What bit this Great White Shark? A cookie-cutter
But I found this linked article about a swimmer that got bit by a cookie-cutter even MORE interesting. Especially because said biting constituted a scientifically interesting subject.
The real cookie monster
Here's the reference, grabbed from the above article:
Honebrink, Randy, Buch, Robert, Galpin, Robert, & Burgess, George H. (2011). First documented attack on a live human by a cookiecutter shark (Squaliformes, Dalatiidae: Isistius sp.) Pacific Science, 65 (3), 365-374 : 10.2984/65.3.365
