The piece notes sharks kill far fewer people than bees wasps and snakes in the US and worldwide. It cites the Florida Museum of Natural History that six people worldwide died from shark attacks this year, one in Hawaii, with most incidents linked to nearshore, warm coastal waters. It also mentions rare cases of successive attacks and that larger sharks like bulls or tigers are involved.
