George, the reason that I am so curious about the bull shark attacks early in the last century, was because it started a national panic to the detriment of all sharks.
Critters that have to be 40 years old before they start laying eggs, are really impacted when we take an attitude toward them.
Bull sharks make their living in exactly the same place that people like to frolic in and have fun. And they bite.
That’s just the way it is.
I agree with this. I have SCUBA dove with a few sizeable sharks and they were fine. Very rare for them to take interest in people outside of the occasional case of mistaken identity. I assume the case is the same with bull sharks in murky water, but really you shouldn't be in murky water anyway because of things like high E Coli content, or god knows what else is in the Mississippi in terms of agricultural runoff and other pollution.
