No sharks in Zanzibar?

 Always when I swim in the ocean in another country than Norway, I'm afraid of sea urchins, sharks and other animals in the sea. When we came to Zanzibar, we were told that there are no sharks here, and if there is, it is outside the rief, but that is rare. Still I'm afraid. So every time I swim, my mum or dad tells me that there is no sharks here, for sure! So I have been swimming a lot, even though I'm afraid. So this weekend, I went to a friend's house, and I was shocked. We saw a shark, and it was catched by the coast in Jambiani (probably outside the rief)! I have heard from a friend that she saw some sharks when she was diving, but they were small and not dangerous. This one was about 2 metres long! The teeth were not there for some reason, maybe they took them away or something, but I think the shark was dangerous. It was called a bullshark.

  2. Ugly pictures, always an unpleasant sight, seeing animals being murdered or tortured. But yes, bull sharks are dangerous and they are present and responsible for attacking swimmers on the East coast of the USA.
