While shark attacks draw attention from major media, the odds of dying from a
shark attack are far less than other predators, including dogs. According to the International
Shark Attack File, and the National Canine Research Foundation, 38 people died from dog attacks in 2012 compared to seven fatalities from sharks. From 2000-2010, 263 died from dog attacks, compared to 10 from shark attacks.
Lightning Strike fatalities vs. Shark Attack fatalities in Florida ( 1959 to 2010):
Number of Florida Lightning Strike Fatalities:459
Number of Florida Shark Attack Fatalities:9
Tornado Fatalities vs. Shark Attack Fatalities in Florida(1985 to 2010
Number of Florida Tornado Fatalities: 125
Number of Florida Shark Attack Fatalities: 6
Bicycle-Related Fatalities vs. Shark Attack Fatalities in Florida (From the year 1990 to 2009)
Number of Florida Bicycle Fatalities: 2,272
Number of Florida Shark Attack Fatalities: 4
MEANINGLESS STATISTICS. Typical propoganda. Easy to see through.
The people exposed to bicycle fatalities or lightning strikes are generally not exposed to GW sharks in high risk areas like the red triangle on a regular basis.
People are exposed to dogs all the time, rarely sharks. That's the reason for the difference. Dogs are not more dangerous than a shark. My god...how ridiculous can you get. There is a dog bite epidemic, but I'd rather run into lassie than jaws...
Why not include the amount of attacks, rather than just fatalities?(like losing an arm or a leg?...lol)
Volusia county alone has had 267 attacks. LOL And they don't even have great whites. A LOT of people have been attacked and one quite frankly is too many. It's a stupid fish.
Again, we do what we can to prevent auto deaths...seatbelts ect. Fishing for sharks and netting makes sense to save human lives. It's a sad state of affairs that people think sharks are "awesome" nowadays. They've been completely manipulated by the eco shark nuts and years of propaganda on shark week. It's a stupid fish that can kill you. Get the nets out

In a part of Australia 7 people died in 3 years from shark attacks. 2010-2013. This was a person's daughter/mother/son ect. These shark conservation nutcases actually fought against the cull listed below in the link. The cull was not even that effective. They didn't even catch many sharks. Shark numbers are exploding, but the econuts that hate people don't want to see any sharks get hurt and keep LYING that these sharks are endangered when all evidence points towards exploding number of GW sharks
Cool rant dude....... Next time use all caps, and bolded font. When the drugs wear off stop by and let us know what it's all about. If the sharks don't get ya first.
Yeah, I came looking to add a few things that I'm not fond of either. Sheesh, Sharks. What a let down.
OK I did a quick peruse of the provided links and good news bad news. Boys are about 10 times more likely to be killed as apposed to girls. So buys don't go swimming down under. Girls have at.
Fresh water? I don't think so.......looks like something that crawled out of a sewer somewhere.
