Data collected by the Florida Museum of Natural History at the University of Florida has broken down more than a century’s worth of shark attack data to put the most recent attacks in perspective. People who are using some kind of flotation device on the surface of the water have been the most frequently attacked individuals in recent years, according to their findings. The data shows that before such flotation devices, which include boogie boards, jet skis and surf boards became so mainstream, the people who were attacked tended to be swimmers and bathers. The graphs were used to explain the shark attacks, how frequent they were and which sharks attacked.
