Shark Bite Reporting and The New York Times [PDF]
The social and political dynamics around human–shark interactions are a growing area of interest in marine social science. The question motivating this article asks to what extent media reporting by The New York Times has engaged beyond the lexicon of ...

Snocross “Shark-bite” Laceration [PDF]
Case Presentation: A snowmobile racer fell from his sled and was run over by another, sustaining “shark bite” to his hand and leg. He was evacuated to a trackside medical trailer where the characteristic wounds were felt to require further exploration at

Increased shark bite survivability revealed by two centuries of Australian records [PDF]
The perceived and real threat of shark bites have significant direct health and indirect economic impacts. Here we assess the changing odds of surviving an unprovoked shark bite using 200 years of Australian records.

Incidence of shark‐inflicted bite injuries on Australian snubfin (Orcaella heinsohni) and Australian humpback (Sousa sahulensis) dolphins in coastal waters off east Queensland, Australia [PDF]
The ecology and evolution of prey populations are influenced by predation and predation risk. Our understanding of predator–prey relationships between sharks and dolphins is incomplete due to the difficulties in observing predatory events directly. Shark‐

Capture Response and Long-Term Fate of White Sharks (Carcharodon carcharias) after Release from SMART Drumlines [PDF]
Human-shark conflict has been managed through catch-and-kill policies in most parts of the world. More recently, there has been a greater demand for shark bite mitigation measures to improve protection for water users whilst minimizing harm to non-target

Investigating the Predation Risk of Coastal Dolphins via the Presence of Shark Bite Scars Across Southeast Queensland, Australia [PDF]
Predation and its risk influence the ecology and evolution of both predator and prey species. Despite this, predatory attempts of large apex sharks on cetaceans often remain unobserved, constraining empirical assessments of their frequency and ecological

Genetic Evidence of Killer Whale Predation on White Sharks in Australia [PDF]
Killer whales (Orcinus orca) have been documented to prey on white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias), in some cases causing localised shark displacement and triggering ecological cascades.
