Yes it does. Anytype of blood attracks sharks. Sharks can smell a single drop of blood from miles away.

~No. Not really. A few drips of human blood won't attract sharks unless the guy was bloodletting in the ocean. Sharks are attracted to fish blood.

Def not any type of blood.. They are not interested in Menstrual blood,because it's dead cells... Human blood from a cut would need to be significant! They sense dying animal blood for sure!!

Sharks are attracted to fish blood. If you watch Mythbusters they tested it they prefer fish blood to human blood. A shark smells blood in the water and follows it to the food (the fish) it means to them that the fish is obviously injured and it is an easy meal.
