In it, the associate curator of vertebrate paleontology at the Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History, Dr Shelton Applegate, noted that it was his opinion that swimmers generally survived shark attacks because “Most of them [sharks] after they take the first bite, find they don’t like the taste and spit it out.” Want the text version?: http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2016/07/sharks-actually-like-taste/ Sources: http://www.sharkinfo.ch/SI2_98e/attacks1.html http://www.discovery.com/tv-shows/shark-week/about-this-show/why-do-sharks-attack/ http://www.livescience.com/51579-fear-of-sharks-psychology.html http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2015/jul/20/sharks-dont-like-to-eat-people-attack-statistics-contradict-untested-theories http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/33591730/top-tips-on-how-to-avoid-a-shark-attack-and-what-to-do-if-you-are-attacked https://www.sharktrust.org/en/taste http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2005/06/0613_050613_sharkfacts.html http://www.amnh.org/learn/pd/sharks_rays/rfl_myth/myth_page5.html http://www.factfiend.com/tiger-sha
