No mention of triathletes

From the Associated Press:

The number of fatal and nonfatal shark attacks worldwide dropped last year, continuing a five-year trend, the director of the International Shark Attack File said today.

There were 58 total attacks in 2005, compared to 65 in 2004, while the number of fatal attacks dropped from seven to four, said George Burgess, director of the shark attack program, which is housed at the University of Florida's Museum of Natural History.

In contrast, there were 78 attacks in 2000, 11 of them fatal, the record year for attacks.

Surfers were the most frequent victims last year, accounting for 29 attacks, followed by 20 attacks on swimmers and waders and four attacks on divers.
