Shark bites and near-attacks have made headlines across the country this summer.
There's a reason for that, says Chantal Audran, curator at the Tybee Island Marine Science Center. More people in the water plus early summer weather are causes for more encounters.
Audran wants all Coastal Georgia beach-goers to enjoy the beauty of the sea and not fear it. In this week's Savannah How, Audran educates us on sharks, the facts on shark attacks and ways to avoid possible encounters with the lion of the sea.
