Shark-Human Interaction and Body Language of Sharks

Erich Ritter

The ‘LetsTalkShark’ podcast offers thoughts and answers to all kinds of topics dealing with sharks, especially aspects on shark-human interaction. Some of the categories are e.g., Bite Affairs where every aspect of an incident is discussed; Anything but Bites highlights topics like how an approaching shark can be interpreted, or what to look for during an interaction and so on; Back in Time deals with e.g., movies like JAWS and why they had such an impact on the populations or when people of the Western world first got confronted with sharks. But listeners are also able to help shaping upcoming podcasts by submitting questions through the same named website. ‘LetsTalkShark’ offers a way to finally get a reply to all the shark related questions whose answers can’t be found on the internet. The show’s host is Dr. Erich K Ritter, head of SharkSchool. He is a shark behaviorist focusing on shark-human interaction and body language of sharks.
