Ep. 48: Bull Sharks and the 1916 Jersey Shore Attacks

This week we take a look at a fearsome predator known as the bull shark.  We go over all about them, from their size to their diet to their attack stats.  Probably the coolest and scariest thing about them is that the can live in both saltwater and freshwater.  There are found in coastal areas all over the world as well as river systems and even lakes.  Then we tell the story that began the fear and hysteria over sharks that still goes on today.  This story was the inspiration of Jaws.  It is the 1916 Jersey Shore Shark Attacks.  12 days of panic as there were five victims with four of them dying.
