Shark Week objectifies sharks. Jaws gave them a bad name. Fear of the unknown only amplifies all the mtyhs. I know sharks generally have a bad name but read this wiki article to the end to get a better understanding of exactly what the relationship between man and shark attacks are. Here is an excerpt which is a little perspective for you..."As of 2009, the ISAF recorded a total of 2,251 attacks worldwide since 1580, with 464 attacks being fatal. The location with the most recorded shark attacks is New Smyrna Beach, Florida. First world nations such as the United States, Australia, and to some extent South Africa, facilitate more thorough documentation of shark attacks on humans than other impoverished second and third world coastal countries. It is likely that the actual frequency of shark attacks worldwide is much higher than reported."
PLEASE READ THOROUGHLY
