Are sharks mindless killing machines?
No. When a shark attacks a human, it is usually by accident or it has been provoked. Most smaller sharks are harmless to humans, and the largest species of shark, the Whale Shark, is harmless as well. Most attacks have been mistaken identities. Sharks usually think that people are their natural prey, a seal, because of shape. Sharks go in for a "test bite" to see if it is a seal or not.

Why do people kill sharks?
In my opinion...it is mostly due to unfounded/irrational fear and ignorance. There are a great number that are killed "accidentally" by fishing nets and shark nets that are supposed to keep sharks away, but often do the opposite. Some are killed for meat (i.e. "shark steaks). There is also the deplorable act of "finning" for the lucrative, unsustainable, and environmentally destructive business of shark fin soup.

What is the sharks natural enemy?
Other sharks. More than anything, humans are the number one killer of sharks. People kill millions and millions of sharks every year. It has recently been discovered that the Killer whale is a hunter and efficient killer of the great white whale. Probably the most efficient killer of great whites, including man. Scientists discovered that killer whales will take advantage of the fact that sharks are paralized when flipped on their backs. A killer whale drives into the shark, grabs it behind the head and flips it over and holds it until the shark is immobilized and then the pod will feast on the shark and eat the shark and even removes the liver and enjoys it as a group.
