Great White Shark: Horrifying Man-Killer or Curious Creature?

Shark WeekIf you have been watching Discovery Channel’s 20th Anniversary Shark Week you will probably have seen many shark attacks (whether it was on people, seals, or fish) and you have probably seen many people say and write about how sharks are terrifying beasts that will gobble up anything in it’s path. But I am here to say that sharks are really not like that. I’m not saying that they are not dangerous because they are….. they’re very dangerous. But they can be calm giants.

See, what happens is sharks will sense movement and will get curious so they decide to investigate. Once they can see what they sensed they go and nip or bite at it to see what it is, thinking that it is most likely a seal, they attack it. In which then they find out what it is and are drawn in more to the creature by the blood from the attack(which they like). So shark attacks are not normally intended for humans but for seals (their normal diet).

Between being a horrifying man-killer or a curious creature I would put a Great White Shark as neither, just as another dangerous animal in the sea-  that happens to be huge.
