The Shark Attack Files
From the Series Wild World of Sharks
A dark, triangular fin slicing through the water can be a terrifying sight. Read the stories of the brave (and lucky) people who have survived real-life shark attacks, such as spearfisher Rodney Fox, who was grabbed by a great white, and Mick Fanning, attacked during a surfing contest. Find out which shark species are involved, what causes attacks, how dolphins have saved people, how to fight back, and much more. Fascinating facts and brilliant photography capture the drama, but don’t worry—you are more likely to be struck by lightning than to be bitten by a shark!
