Though some consider the Ganges shark to be "extremely dangerous", it has so far been impossible to separate its attacks from those of bull sharks. Most likely, the shark is a specialized species that feeds primarily on small fish. Amongst the deadly sharks inhabiting the Ganges, the bull shark represents a greater definite danger than this extremely endangered and elusive species.

Famous quotes containing the words danger to, danger and/or humans:

    John F. Kennedy was the victim of the hate that was a part of our country. It is a disease that occupies the minds of the few but brings danger to the many.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)

    Yet some natures are too good to be spoiled by praise, and wherever the vein of thought reaches down into the profound, there is no danger from vanity. Solemn friends will warn them of the danger of the head’s being turned by the flourish of trumpets, but they can afford to smile.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Here we also see: what this divinity lacks is not only a sense of shame—and there are also other reasons for conjecturing that in several respects all of the gods could learn from us humans. We humans are—more humane.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
