America, southeastern and southwestern South 

 America, northwestern Europe, northwestern and 

 southern Africa, southern Australia and New Zealand, 

 and northeast Asia and Japan (Caldwell and Caldwell 

 1989, Compagno 1984). Therefore, other incidents of 

 predation may be observed in these areas.
