Not so - according to an article about them on the National Geographic website: Quote many experts consider bull sharks to be the most dangerous sharks in the world. Historically, they are joined by their more famous cousins, great whites and tiger sharks, as the three species most likely to attack humans Bull Shark - National Geographic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bulls are regarded as very low threat to the divers and frequently allow the divers to swim with the team... They will also just eat from your hand... Just like Grey Reef sharks.

Bulls are not shy. They can be very aggressive given the right circumstances - they have the highest testosterone of any animal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wobalt Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Possibly, especially the guys who are selling Chilean bull shark testosterone will support the highest testosterone claim. Are you researching in this field?I was engaged from 2000-2008 in a survey regarding river shark distribution in South East Asia, Australia, China and India.Gesendet von iPhone mit Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
