Correct, and apparently lerts aren't their favorite food, so if you follow this advice, you will at least not be their first choice.

Fake news.

There have never been sharks in the gulf. Anywhere.

1. 93% of shark attacks from 1580 to 2010 worldwide were on males.

This is sexist.

2. Most shark attacks happen within 100 feet of shore.

In other news, most beach goers swim within 100 feet of shore.

and the good news is, IF he (or she, I don't wanna be sexist here) catches one, he (or she) will be full for several weeks!

I love when the women start sharing the shark pictures every summer when the sharks start showing up in bigger numbers along the coast

I've had multiple reliable sources tell me they can in fact swim

I'd be more worried about the flesh-eating bacteria and brain-eating amoebas.
