For example, some sharks may be attracted to the sound or movement of a human in the water, mistaking it for a fish or another animal they typically hunt. Additionally, some shark species may be more likely to attack if they feel threatened or provoked, such as when a person is spearfishing or diving too close to the shark's territory.
Although shark attacks can be serious and sometimes fatal, it's important to note that they are relatively rare occurrences. Sharks play an important role in maintaining the balance and diversity of marine ecosystems.
