Sharks are very important top-level predators that have been sensationalized through movies, the news media and literature.  Sharks are very important beings in keeping the balance of our oceans ecosystem.  They are not man-eaters waiting for the opportunity to chow down on some poor unsuspecting human. We are not their food and the number of shark attacks in a year world wide over the last 10 years is approximately 5-7.  We are more likely to be killed by a falling coconut or a fall off our trusty ladder at home. Come hear the truth about these maligned beauties and understand the challenge we face because of how many we kill each year.  Ours and the ocean's survival depend on the decisions we make in the coming years.
