Title: Did you know there were sharks in the ocean?
Post by prechermike on 07/11/15 at 08:07:35

Well, I should hope so!

There have been 8 shark attacks on people this year in North Carolina waters and I heard today a porpoise washed ashore that had been bitten by a shark and died.

Below is a link to a website that tracks sharks with a radio transmitter of some sort. When the sharks' fin, with the "pinger" attached breaks the surface, it registers with a satellite and you can track the shark.

Here is the link to Katherine
http://www.ocearch.org/profile/katharine/

It tells about her, age, weight (2300 pounds), length (14 ft 2 in), and some other stuff.

If you zoom in on the map, her most "inland" ping, on January 10, 2015, is about 18.5 miles (as the crow flies) from where I live now. Pretty cool, I think.

Veronica-Pooh Nash Poleate has some good safety advice for avoiding a shark attack.

I am shark proof. My socks, pants an t shirt are shark proof. They don't get wet. AND, I promised the sharks that I would stay out of their front yard IF they stayed out of mine. So far, no sharks in my yard...

My daddy used to say, avoid places where you are not the top of the food chain. Good advice, in the wild and in society...

There are far more sharks in peoples freezers than people in sharks bellies. I think it's a good risk,going in the sea. I'd hate to be eaten tho. Better to be the eater than the eaten. The shark trackers show how amazingly far sharks travel, right? They really get around.

I KNOW the odds. I've been bodysurfing in Florida, I've been to Galveston, but, I just don't want to anymore.. the
Boy, this sure is fun.
Just isn't enough bigger than the
Man that sands hot, I've got sand dunes in my drawers and is some nearsighted shark gonna mistake me for dinner
ideas that seem to be on a loop.
Odds are, you're not gonna get hurt going to the beach.
However, I have experience with the beach, and my recliner.

I like my odds here better. Thirty five years ago, I woulda been heading to the beach..

What an interesting paradox - she is being dangerous recording a video while she drives to tell everyone how to be safe. :o

Like the lady standing smack in my way at work the other day jacking with her cell while wearing a shirt that asked 'I wonder if you'd drive better with that cell phone shoved up your ass
so ironic
