attack rates but very high fatality rates, so maybe higher fatality rates can also be caused by
insufficient medical care. The most recent fatal attack was in 2020 at Sand Dollar Beach, Santa Cruz
County, involving a surfer and Great White. Like most sophisticated hunters, they are curious when.

rare exceptions, it has been concluded that feeding is not a reason sharks attack humans. An incident
occurred in 2011 when a 3-meter long great white shark jumped onto a 7-person research vessel off
Sea Island,South Africa. In fact, humans don't provide enough high-fat meat for sharks, which need
a lot of energy to power their large, muscular bodies. I’m especially intrigued by the enormous
differences in the proportion of shark attacks to shark fatalities throughout the world. It also showed
people would rather go through three other horrendous experiences as opposed to being attacked by
a shark: 14 percent would rather be attacked by a bear. 34 percent would rather fall out of a third-
