    Interesting, global warming is being blamed for more attacks in North Carolina.

    Also, lemme lay this on you:

    Maui shark attacks happen mostly on the south shore..Kihei and Wailea. Five miles up the shoreline is the Maui Ocean Center...the Hawaiian aquarium. I bought membership early on.
    Now, they always have one tiger shark in the tank. They catch them young in the wild and bring em in. They don't always like it but mostly they adjust. When I joined they had just christened one..a female named Makani Hou (The happy wind)...she went into a depression and had to be released. Then came Hoku Au Kai (Star which swims in the ocean) and he settled in just fine.
    These sharks grow up in the tank. A scuba diver jumps in and feeds them every day. Visitors can pay to do the same thing. So these sharks are fed by humans every day and associate humans with being fed. When they get too big for the tank they are released into the wild. Sometimes they don't want to leave the boat and it takes a while before they realize that they're free.
    Then come the reports of tiger shark sightings all along the shoreline. Nobody understands that the sharks are tame and they want the humans to feed them. One had just been released right before I joined the aquarium and beaches were getting closed daily for a while. Same thing when Hoku Au Kai was released.
    I understand the realities involved in all of this but I still have trouble with raising an animal as a tame pet and then releasing it only to have it be treated as a monster. People be trippin when they all talk about the shark sightings and you pipe in with "yes, and his name is Hoku Au Kai and he's being starved because you won't feed him any more."
