1. National Geographic explains that sharks are often feared due to their sharp teeth, powerful jaws, and large size, which can give the impression of a dangerous predator. The media also contributes to this fear by sensationalizing shark attacks.

2. Discovery Channel suggests that our fear of sharks may also stem from their reputation as apex predators and their mysterious, unknown nature. The fear of the unknown can cause people to be wary of sharks.

3. Smithsonian Ocean mentions that the fear of sharks can be traced back to cultural and historical factors, such as the portrayal of sharks as villains in movies and literature. This negative representation of sharks has further fueled the fear of these creatures.
