I'd like to point out that I'm a huge advocate for shark conservation worldwide. I discourage all use of shark products and any other naturally derived products that are detrimental to the well being of those animals.

While I have captured some the sharks in what may appear to be aggressive, or threatening behaviour nothing could be farther from the truth.

These animals are not out to get you in the water, if you believe this you've been watching too much TV.

These animals are simply exhibiting natural behaviour.
