sharks are just fish with sharp teeth.
.. the problem is divers who feed them and they build up the courage to approach people.. those are the ones who get bit and then the sharks get blamed. and then you have surfers who surf in murky waters surrounded by baitfish running away from sharks who are trying to catch them and they get bit on the leg by mistake.
