Today, Laura, Krysta and Dean discuss the 1916 Shark Attacks on the Jersey Shore. In the summer of 1916 a heatwave and a polio epidemic were in full swing, and over roughly two weeks in July, right around the July 4th holiday, a series of shark attacks changed the scientific community's ideas around sharks and changed America forever. Laura, Krysta and Dean discuss these events, discuss what shark or sharks are believed to be the culprits and the events of those two weeks in an effort to understand how America went from believing that sharks couldn't or wouldn't bite humans to believing in 'man eating' sharks. It's all here, enjoy!
