| Though the sharks themselves are beautiful creatures they are wild and don't take it very well when foreign creatures come into their oceanic domain. Every year sharks attack between 50 and 100 people, about 7 - 20 are deaths. The main sharks contributing to these are the Tiger Shark, the Bull Shark, and the Great White Shark. These sharks are big, and deadly. Whenever a shark attack is suspected most people point fingers at the Great White, when in fact, the Bull Shark is the number 1 cause of shark attacks. The following places are very dangerouse when it comes to shark attacks. In the US: California Texas Hawaii North Carolina In the Missisipi river (due to the bull shark who can mysteriously survive in fresh and salt water) Outside of the US: Australia Brazil South Africa Reunion Island (in the Indian Ocean) The Bahamas Cuba Egypt Fiji New Zealand Venezuela ______________________________________________________________________________________ If you are going to beaches in this area, be very watchful. NEVER SWIM IN ANY MURKY WATER! |

| Greetings from Virginia Beach. The weather is nice and hot down here and the waves are perfect. The only problem is August is jelly fish month. I've been stung twice while surfing in the shallows by a huge jelly fish which one of the teenagers on the beach caught in a bucket.
Some sharks prey on jelly fish and so when there are jelly's there are sharks. Before i got stung I felt a hard bump on my leg and I couldn't identify the attacker. I then saw 2 holes in my right leg. Maybe a shark |

Answer to the baby shark: If you guessed Great White or White Shark you are correct.
