We had three shark bites in two days last week. You should see the papers over here. The media is rabid. All sorts of claims such as sharks hunting people, shark plagues and too many more to count.

Shark numbers have increased due to tighter laws surrounding their capture and also some species being declared protected.

Some of these claims by the media and other 'noted authorities' on the subject seem just a bit melodramatic to me.

If these sharks were 'hunting' people, why didn't they kill them? About punching the shark; that's how a lot of people have survived shark attacks. Apparently sharks are just big pussies (or sea kittens as PETA would like us to think)
