Shark Attack Related Incident File Home Page

 

Welcome!

First you should know this site is a research tool we use at Shark Attack Survivors to better our efforts, contact other shark victims, monitor trends in current (up to the minute) and past shark – human incidents from around the world.

We try to keep a record of all reported or submitted “Shark Attack Related Incidents”. Not every incident listed here maybe a “Shark Attack”. Shark Attack Related Incidents include shark attacks, but also includes all other related incidents involving sharks and humans.

The results you see here will differ from all other shark attack stats you may find elsewhere. There are several reasons why, but the most important one is the other sources only report on a portion of the incidents, the ones that are important to them.

What’s important to someone sitting behind a desk that uses the vending machine several times a day is much different than those of us using the water where there are no vending machines, but sharks are present.

All the figures, stats, queries are in Real Time - Each time a new incident is added all the results will automatically be updated.

Here are just a few stats and the most recent Incidents added to the file.
