Cookie-cutter sharks have rarely been seen, (only one actual footage recorded) so it is hard to find evidence of attack. But since washed up juveniles have been found, shark biologists have matched their jaws with many similar wounds, on animals teh size of tuna to sperm whales. Although it is a small shark, coockie-cutter sharks swim up to unsuspected victims, (using camaflouge) they bite a perfect, circle-sized chunk out of the skin and then swim away. There has only been one attack on a human.
Cookie cutter sharks don't hear
YES COOKIE CUTTER SHARKS DO SEE OTHERS, how else would they mate if they couldn't see eachother!
The cookie cutter shark's enemy is the whale.

They are called cookie cutter sharks because About 100-90 years ago, a submarine was in the water and then when they came back, there was a bite mark that literally looked like a baker took a cookie cutter and put it in the sub! But what it really was, was a cookie cutter shark. What really happened, was that since the sharks diet is whale, the cookie cutter though that the sub was a whale, and took a bite, and then realised that it wasn't a whale and left it so that's how it happened!
No. Not really. Cookie cutter sharks eat whales, so they won't mistake humans for a whale. And cookie cutters are one of the smallest sharks, so they won't be a threat.

Cookie cutter sharks live in deep, tropical and temperate waters worldwide. They are typically found at depths of 1,000 to 4,000 feet during the day and come closer to the surface at night to feed. Cookie cutter sharks are known to inhabit both coastal and pelagic environments.
