You're underwater in the ocean, scuba diving, and you notice a dark shape coming your way. As it gets closer, you can see its face and its fins. The shape is moving slowly and gracefully towards you. You can see that its mouth is parted, slightly open, and the figure's sharp, pointed bottom teeth gleam when the faint sunlight hits them. The eyes are as dark as night, and they remind you of death. The face that you are looking into is the face of a shark.
If you've ever seen the movie Jaws you probably believe that sharks are horrifying monsters waiting to bite your head off. Not true! Sharks may bite you but only because of three main reasons. One of these reasons is to find out what you taste like. To sharks, humans are bony and disgusting so sharks have little favor for your flavor.
Another reason sharks may attack people is because someone may be swimming in a jerky motion. That reminds sharks of a hurt, defenseless creature they can have for dinner. They also may attack you because they feel scared or threatened.
If you ever see a shark swimming in the ocean don't panic or swim away too fast. The shark doesn't know what you are. It may be as frightened as you are of it. Remember that you are both great predators.
Keep in mind that the shark wants to learn about you, a strange two-legged creature. You both have similar instincts so you may be able to pinpoint what the shark is thinking: "What are you? Are you dangerous? Should I swim away? Are you food?" Sharks are intelligent but not as intelligent as you are. Don't forget, brains beat teeth.
