Have you guys seen all the sharks they are showing off of the coast of Florida?? It's crazy! I wonder why they are swarming like that!

Re: SHARKS!!

Doesn't it have to do with heavy feeding on schools of fish before they head north for the summer? Still it's plenty creepy.<<shiver>>

Re: SHARKS!!

Sharks head north for the summer???

I think I better educate the sharks around here, we have them swarming all year round.... [img]http://smileys.*************.com/cat/26/26_11_10.gif[/img]

If the locals would only see their favorite swim areas from the air....

Re: SHARKS!!

I missed that this morning. Darn!! But that is the reason why I haven't gone in the ocean since I was young. Because now I know what is lurking out there.

It's also one reason why I chickened out on the cruise...there are things in that water that no one has ever *seen* before! (and I do NOT want to be the first!)

Re: SHARKS!!

I also saw the report on the TODAY show this morning which they'd been reporting on locally for a couple of weeks now. This morning they specifically targeted Deerfield Beach and as I recall, we have a Passporter from there... AlisonG.

Allison, we're thinking about you! Don't go in the water, do not pass GO, do not collect $200...

I think that was my cue...

the sharks that are schooling off the east coast are feeding on bait fish that are coming close to shore - they do this every year. And yes - melissa - they are headed north to south and north carolina, into the bays to have thier pups (thats what baby sharks are called)...

More questions???

Re: SHARKS!!

I heard on the new tonight that chances of an attack from these sharks is slim. What is slim?

Re: SHARKS!!

You have a greater chance of getting hit by lightening than being bitten by a shark.

I haven't seen anything yet; I was trying to watch the news and the boys just changed the channel. Sigh...
