Are sharks man eaters? Are we on the menu? Consider how many millions of people are in the ocean daily and how well equipped apex sharks are to kill their prey. If we were really a target for sharks thousands of people would be 'attacked' daily yet they're not. Do you feel safe swimming? You're actually more likely to drown than be killed by a shark. Water safety should be a priority when entering it, whether you're swimming in an ocean or a pool. Always stay within your limits, always dive with a buddy and never be afraid to ask for help if you feel uncomfortable. Sharks are not the enemy, they're misunderstood, beautiful and intelligent animals that need our protection not mislabeling.
