What can one do to reduce the risk of being attacked by a shark?
By learning more about sharks, and using a little common sense, the risk of injury can be greatly reduced. The State of Hawaii Shark Task Force recommends
the following measures to reduce the risk of being bitten by a shark:
Don't swim with bleeding wounds.
Don't wear bright jewelry or high contrasting colors.
Refrain from excessive splashing.
Don't swim if sharks are known to be present.
Be alert if turtles and fish are fleeing the area.
Remove speared fish from the water.
