"Scoops and Sharks
In the study, researchers documented the number of ice cream cones eaten per capita, along with the number of shark attacks. According to their data, shark attacks were lowest in the winter, when the populace ate the least ice cream, and highest in summer, when they ate the most. Those who had eaten ice cream purchased from boardwalk or beachside stands were most likely to be linked to a shark attack.
While not usually man-eaters, sharks require highly-caloric food to power their muscular bodies. ((((((As fat contains more calories per gram than protein or carbohydrates, it is believed that humans with higher levels of body-fat would be more attractive to sharks.)))))
“Ice cream itself has a lot of fat,” says Dr. Anita Bath, another researcher from the University of Wroxton.
“It’s possible that eating more ice cream leads to weight gain, which would increase your appeal to sharks. Similarly, sharks may be able to sense recently-eaten ice cream in the stomach.”
Sharks have a highly developed sense of smell and sensitive electrical receptors."
This is where I was getting my information. I didn't notice the "this is why I like to read fantasy" at the top of the page. I took that news article seriously and thought it was real. then silk brought it to my attention that that new article was farce.
