2022 Shark Attacks News Archive and 2022 International Shark Attack File

I would like to help the ocean-going public understand the shark attack statistics they always hear about and those they don’t.

Each year, a shark research group investigates the reported incidents, chooses the ones that will help their research, and shares with us the area where they found the incidents for their study.  In 2022, they found 57 incidents we displayed them in the left column under ISAF. In the right column labeled Here, we have all the news reports of shark attacks with a link to each report.

For you to start understanding how the shark world works, we put the easiest incidents first. The first 21 incidents were not picked for the ISAF study for various reasons they should help you understand more before you get further into ShatrkAttacks.net
