Sharks from the species once considered a harmless kill and devoured the snorkeler in frenhy food
A 40-year-old male tourist was swimming and filming about 100m from shore in Hadera on Israel’s coast in April when he was surrounded by the terror of dusky sharks, a species normally considered dangerous to humans.
The witness suggests that the shark was reportedly smeared with his gopro camera. Witnesses Babe could be heard shouting: “Take them away … Before he disappeared from sight as the water turned red and some Shark Fines could be seen on the face. By the time rescue boats arrived, the water was bloody and the man was gone, said local reports.
“The next day, a search at sea found human corpses (in very small quantities) that allowed the confirmation of the composition of the victim, and led to the conclusion of ‘several sharks about this incident,'” wrote the investigators.
The report, published in the journal Arrangement,
Investigators have denied the most unusual attacks on a combination of factors, including human error, environmental distortions, and the natural state of animals in the feedlot.
While Dusky sharks are large and aggressive in appearance, growing to about 3m (10ft) in length, they are shy and shy and wary of humans.

The sea from Hadera in Israel has attracted these reef sharks because of the warm water from the coastal reduction plants.
In addition, human feeding of these sharks, as well as several food wastes dumped in the region, have served to attract Dusky sharks continuously, in large numbers during the winter.
Local boat operators who cater to tourists also throw fish into these structures to keep the local sharks close to the customers.
These factors have combined to lead sharks to associate humans with food, and a new behavioral pattern for them called “begging”, the scientists explained.
Many sharks have been documented to swim directly at various people, sometimes even brushing against them, looking for fast food handouts.
A closer look at the photos taken at the scene revealed that the sharks may be dutky sharks based on the size and shape of the dorsal den.
Scientists are of the opinion that the environment of competition for food created in these waters has led to the sharks in love with the Shark showing strange behavior during feeding.

“Competition for food resources imposes more forms of ‘normal’ behavior, including a false form of non-human (human) prey,” they wrote.
“This phenomenon may occur through the process of juxtaposition bites, with two different motivations: first, a single bite driven by tempting food, and second, several opposite bites caused by feed frenzy,” the researchers explained.
The solutions that can be taken to prevent such incidents in the future are simple and more effective than in the case of the preparation of deadly shark attacks from well-known species such as tiger sharks, they said.
“The central objective is to end the practice of shark baiting, and this can only be achieved by establishing and enforcing a complete and total ban on all shark study by the public,” the scientists said.
“Any other method may be compatible, but less comfortable than this method,” they concluded.
