Statistically , they are relatively harmless to humans , Only about a dozen people a year are killed by them and their are plenty of videos showing divers swimming free with ' man eaters ' like Tiger sharks , Great whites etc with the sharks showing only mild curiosity , Elephants are way more dangerous at about 500 deaths a year , but sharks seem to create a primal fear in us that the more cuddly species don't .

Possibly connected to the fact when they do attack it is generally from beneath, and not always accompanied by a fin and catchy theme tune. Not knowing what lies beneath us when we are swimming is a true primal fear passed down from our ancestors. There is more chance of seeing most land animals prior to any attack. Sharks are amazing creatures and should be studied not destroyed.

There is something like this being trialed in Australia this year , the so called 'Eco net ' but it seems to be held up because of safety concerns from surfers , it looks promising though .
