The survival at sea is vulnerable to shark attack. Ocean sharks are not usually ferocious when food is plentiful. Most are cowards and can be scared off by the jab of a stick, especially on the nose. However, makinga commotion may attract sharks. Sharks feed off the ocean bottom, but hungry sharks will follow fish to the surface and into shallow water.
