A TOURIST has been killed following a suspected animal attack off the coast of Mexico.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The victim, a Belgian man, is believed to have been mauled by either a shark or a crocodile in the Pacific resort of Playa Quieta, Guerrero.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A woman, 52, from Los Angeles was also attacked and rushed to the hospital, per Mexico News Daily.<\/p>\n

Officials revealed that both the man and the woman were attacked in the legs by the creature.<\/p>\n

Emergency crews were scrambled to the beach and frantically tried to save the man\u2019s life but their efforts were unsuccessful, as reported by El Pais.<\/p>\n

The woman was taken to the hospital after suffering bite injuries.<\/p>\n

Her current condition remains unknown. It\u2019s not known if the man and the woman know each other.<\/p>\n

Randy Suastegui Cebero, of the Guerrero state government, revealed an operation was launched following the suspected attacks.<\/p>\n

National Guard forces and local authorities were involved in the hunt for the animal, per Milenio.<\/p>\n

The beach was closed and purple flags had been put up, warning swimmers.<\/p>\n

The latest attack comes just weeks after Maria Fernandez Martinez Jimenez was killed in an animal attack.<\/p>\n

Jimenez was mauled just 65 feet from the shore when she was attacked at Melaque Beach, Jalisco.<\/p>\n

Officials revealed she lost a lot of blood after being bitten near her hip.<\/p>\n

She was trying to save her daughter at the time of the attack.<\/p>\n

It was initially thought that she died in a shark attack, but it has been reported that she may have been the victim of a crocodile attack.<\/p>\n

Locals have claimed that there haven\u2019t been reports of sharks stalking swimmers and beachgoers in the area.<\/p>\n

Jimenez, 26, was a former marine biology student at the University of Guadalajara.<\/p>\n

Marine biologists have speculated that the cause of shark attacks is linked to mistaken identity.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is extremely unlikely for swimmers and surfers to be bitten \u2013 or even encounter \u2013 sharks," Lauren Gaches, of the NOAA Fisheries Public Affairs, told CBS News.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Sun reported surfer Kevin Kanehe was attacked by a tiger shark off the coast of Hawaii in October.<\/p>\n

Kanehe revealed that he almost lost his leg in the attack but managed to stave off the beast by sticking his finger in its nostril.<\/p>\n

His wife Deanna documented the extent of his injuries on a GoFundMe page that was set up.<\/p>\n

She said: \u201cThe bite went to the bone above and below his knee, taking some chips off his femur, knee cap and tibia."<\/p>\n
