International Shark Attack File (ISAF)

The International Shark Attack File (ISAF) is a comprehensive database maintained by the Florida Museum of Natural History that records all reported shark attacks worldwide. It systematically collects details about each incident, including location, circumstances, and species involved, to help researchers understand and analyze shark behavior, improve safety measures, and promote awareness. The ISAF serves as a valuable resource for scientists, policymakers, and the public, providing accurate and up-to-date information to better assess risks and foster coexistence with sharks.
