Summary
Sharks are everywhere—especially where the fish are biting—and spearfishers are witnessing record numbers, forcing quick moves to avoid unwanted encounters. A first-hand brush with a massive great white humbles even seasoned ocean-goers, reminding us where we fit in the food chain. While Australia’s recent shark bites stir old fears, experts say shark populations may simply be rebounding to natural levels after decades of decline. These great whites, tagged off New Zealand, are migrating like whales—whose booming numbers mean more prey for sharks. We’re entering a new normal: balancing human safety with ocean ecology, where science and tech must bridge the gap between fear and fact.
