A popular
resort activity is diving with sharks and feeding them. People pay money to get
into the water with an animal that has the capacity to eat them. I am not one
of those tourists. When I have been in the water I am constantly looking for
anything that might want to feed on me. Once while snorkeling in the Caribbean
I was enjoying the clear water and view of tropical reef below me. A school of
fish rushed underneath, and I was thinking, “Wow, what a wonderful sight!”
until I had another thought, “What if something is chasing them?” My wonderment
changed to fear even though I didn’t see any predators around.
