The Department of Ichthyology at the Florida Museum of Natural History administers the International Shark Attack File (ISAF), a compilation of all known shark attacks. More than 3,200 individual investigations are currently housed in the File, covering the period from mid-1500's to present. Users can access maps, graphs and statistics on worldwide shark attacks, great white attack and attacks on divers. The ISAF also provides information on the relative risk of shark attacks, how to reduce the risk of shark attacks and how, where and when shark attacks typically happen. This is a useful site for users interested in finding comprehensive information regarding worldwide shark attacks.
