There are three important types of relationships between sharks and humans. They mistake us for their food or we eat them, we protect them, and we research them. Sharks are not very dangerous to humans.We research them so we can learn about them. Some people hunt sharks for food. To research them, they have to tag them so they can pull them on the boat to measure them and take blood samples. Researchers look for scars to try to follow them. They follow them to learn more about migration ranges and the number of sharks. They eat sharks in other countries.You can buy shark meat at the store. The reason sharks are protected is because people catch them and they can not reproduce as fast as we catch them. When sharks
attack us, they see our blood and think we are injured seals.
1,000 people have been attacked by sharks in the last ten years,
but more people are killed by dogs each year than are
