VERY true. They aren't evil, but sharks are predators. Although, interestingly in these cases at least two of the stories involed someone kicking a shark before being bitten and somebody hooking a shark and dragging it to the boat before being bitten. So, that may have been partially defensive rather than hunting behavior. Glad everybody survived at least.

Yikes! I visited family on Cape Cod a few years back and they've got great white shark warning signs posted at the entrance to all the paid access beaches, and people have an app that shows recent shark sightings around the Cape so you can decide if you want to risk going in the water. The water is incredibly murky off the Cape too, you'd never see it coming.

We could enjoy the shore lines again if crazies didn't limit shark fishing. Protecting sharks is insane, unAmerican, looney as all get-out, nonsensical and terribly wrong.

I don't know why, but there seem to be much fewer shark attacks in Europe. There, we always swam out without worrying about sharks. When I first visited Florida, I entered the water alone after dusk, but then got a bad feeling and got out again. Back in my room, I checked the statistics about shark attacks, and it turned out my feeling was right... Now I'm more careful when going to the beach in the US.

[@Beelzebubby91]

Probably has something to do with migration patterns, amount of fish/seals/shark food in the area and water temperature. Not all, but lots of sharks prefer warmer water so it makes sense why Florida, South Africa, etc have more shark activity. I’ve swam in the ocean a lot in warm countries and haven’t had any issues, but it’s smart to ask the locals or watch where they swim. Don’t swim at dusk because that’s feeding time for sharks and stay in the flag lines lifeguards have set out if there are any. Don’t fish in the same area you or other people are swimming and avoid wearing shiny jewelry in the water(that’s more for barracudas than sharks). Sometimes a storm will cause a swell and that can bring more sharks (and jellyfish) in because more fish will flock to the area. Try not to worry too much and just enjoy your time at the beach!

[@erics2305]

@@Beelzebubby91 I don't say you're wrong, but here are some more points to consider. The Mediterranean is quite warm, and it seems that, there, sharks are less of an issue, despite tons of people swimming there. Also, at least if you believe the locals (and I think the statistics say the same thing, whether they're correct is another point), Cuba hardly ever has shark attacks, despite being close to Florida. I think one of the best things to do is probably to swim in a group.
