#1 I still blame this kind of thing on Disney, the public at large no longer understands that wild animals are DANGEROUS. They might be cute, cuddly and nifty, but to them you're just food or a rival for food. They don't talk, sing, or dance and they will kill you without mercy.

Gee, thanks Walt.

#5 They're not all in the Bahamas, but there's nothing in the article about what's for breakfast in Manalapan, Frank.
Several South Florida beaches are closed because of migrating sharks. Hundreds of sharks have been seen recently migrating off the coast of Palm Beach County, Florida. This swarm of sharks was spotted in the waters off Manalapan, Florida Tuesday morning. Officials have closed the beaches to keep swimmers from getting too close to the sharks. The sharks are expected to eventually move north and away from land.

#6 Entirely possible I fished (for sailfish, not sharks) off that same boat in Florida about 25 years ago. Same name, same length, same look. Not and uncommon name or look, I know. What a freaking moron tour operator and what moron tourists. Getting into the water with a tiger shark, a bull shark, a big hammerhead or a mako is asking for trouble.
