It's a deep primeval human fear.
For the last year my wife has been enviously reading the glowing reports emailed back by a friend who emigrated to Australia, complete with pictures of the kids frolicking in the surf, which has been a source of slight irritation to me. I always had a feeling that the family were trying to convince themselves as well as their friends that they had done the right thing. Suddenly the reports dried up then it emerged that someone they knew had been scoffed by a shark! The family have now returned to Britain where life may be dull but at least there’s not much that can eat you! It may rain a bit but at least you can go for a swim or a walk in the country and not worry about being eaten, bitten, stung or poisoned.
