In the movies and on TV, divers are always running into sharks or eels. Are marine animals really much of a concern?
Virtually all aquatic animals are passive or timid. There are a few that can bite or sting defensively, but you can avoid these simply by watching where you put your hands and feet, and by not touching any animal you don’t recognize. Divers aren’t natural prey for sharks, so shark attacks are very rare. Shark attacks are especially rare in the Caribbean.
