When Competition Breaks the Rules: Feeding Frenzy as a Trigger for Unexpected Fatal Shark Predation Bites on a Human Sea‐User by Non Traumatogenic Carcharinids in the Oriental Mediterranean

open access: yesEthology, Volume 131, Issue 11, Page 260-264, November 2025.
Feeding frenzy may lead non‐traumatogenic shark species to predate a human, despite this not being an instinctive prey item. As a first step, an initial non‐predatory bite (not targetting the human as a prey) can trigger multiple feeding stimuli (mainly sounds and blood smelling) attracting sharks in the area.
