decadeal trends, we see a slight increase over the last 50 years. we believe this is largely because there are a lot more people pursuing recreational water sports. however, two years ago we saw a substantial dip in the number of shark bites globally. >> oh, wow! >> reporter: he says we have an irrational fear of sharks cultivated over the years by popular culture, with films like "jaws" defining our image of the animals for generations. shark bites are horrific events and tragic events and it creates this sort of wave of angst that spreads throughout the local population. and it is, it's very violent and very traumatic, but a lot of things in nature are. >> reporter: most of the world's shark populations are in decline as a result of overfishing and habitat loss. >> it's now estimated that maybe one-quarter of all shark species are threatened with extinction.
