– Avoid rough waters
Sharks are wild animals and their reactions can be unpredictable. To prevent such encounters, it’s best to take precautions and avoid putting yourself in potentially risky situations.
In regions with a high concentration of sharks, such as Florida, swimming in rough waters is strongly discouraged. The lack of visibility in these conditions can lead a shark to mistake a human being for prey, particularly at sunrise or sunset. While the probability of encountering a shark is minimal, it’s worth noting that sharks cause far fewer human deaths each year than cows or dogs.
