The Talion law “tooth for a tooth”: self-defense as a motivation for shark bites on human aggressors

Frontiers in Conservation Science
The concept of “self-defense,” based on aggression by one individual responding to an initial aggression by another, has been observed in several animal taxa such as birds and terrestrial mammals but never documented in detail in sharks. Based on a multi-

Not all electric shark deterrents are made equal: Effects of a commercial electric anklet deterrent on white shark behaviour.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Personal shark deterrents offer the potential of a non-lethal solution to protect individuals from negative interactions with sharks, but the claims of effectiveness of most deterrents are based on theory rather than robust testing of the devices ...
