There is no species of shark that mostly attacks humans. Sharks eat aquatic life; fish, seals, and in the case of the whale shark, plankton. People can easily avoid sharks simply by not going in the water, so any shark that relied on eating people for its diet, would die of starvation. However, sharks do sometimes attack people, and the species which has done this the most is the great white shark.
