Episode 287: Beguiled by Bull Sharks All Creatures Podcast

    • Nature

As one of the ocean's top predators, Bull Sharks are demonized and characterized as man-killing machines. What gives this myth even more teeth is the fact that Bull Sharks can be found in many major river systems and even some freshwater lakes around the world. We fear Bull Sharks, when the statistics show Bull Sharks hardly ever attack and even kill humans. We are now harvesting nearly 100 million sharks a year from our oceans at an unsustainable rate. Thus, Bull Sharks and many of its close relatives are heading straight towards extinction. This is a fascinating species that deserves your time and understanding. There are so many astounding facts about Bull Sharks we have no doubt you will fall in love with them as we did.
