Did We Get Bull Sharks Wrong?

Bull sharks have a reputation as one of the most dangerous sharks in the world.

But what if they’ve been blamed for attacks they didn’t commit?

In this video, we take a closer look at shark attacks that were quickly labeled as “bull shark incidents” — and uncover the possibility that other shark species may have been responsible.

From mysterious encounters in murky waters to cases where identification was never confirmed, this story challenges what we think we know about shark behavior, risk, and responsibility.

Chester Moore & The Museum of the Gulf Coast will host a free shark day at the Museum of the Gulf Coast Saturday  June 20 from 10-1.
