Unfortunately, sharks are some of the most misunderstood species on our planet. While there are shark encounters and people who have been attacked by sharks, these are extremely rare, yet they receive extensive coverage in the media.

Your chances of encountering a shark and being the victim of an unprovoked shark attack are less likely than being struck by lightning or killed by a cow.

Yes, you read correctly. You are more likely to be struck by lightning or killed by a cow than to be attacked by a shark.

Cows kill about 22 people a year, while sharks kill about 5 people a year.
