The most dangerous species of sharks is the bull shark, tiger shark, and oceanic whitetip.

Many people think the Great White Shark (species Carcharodon carcharias) is the most dangerous shark but it is not aggressive and most attacks on humans are due to the shark mistaking the human for a seal. A human on a surf board looks very much like a manatee as seen in the ocean looking upward.
