Of course there are sharks in the Gulf of Mexico. There are usually an average of 30 shark attacks per year although most of them are non fatal bites on ankles or legs. The number of shark attacks have become fewer and fewer lately with last year only netting 12 attacks. The most common Sharks in the Gulf are bull sharks and Nurse Sharks. Bull sharks can be very dangerous and aggressive and should be given respect and distance. This however should not disuade you from swimming and enjoying the gulf as there are many millions of residents and tourists that swim each year with no problems whatsoever.
Shark attacks are not a very common occurrence in New Jersey. There have never been any fatal shark attacks in New Jersey and only a handful of attacks on humans in the past 100 years.
In all probability - zero. Sharks attacks are quite rare. Sharks actually eating people even rarer.
As of 19 February 2015, there have been 2,899 shark attacks worldwide with 548 fatalities since recordings were kept in 1580. If we specifically narrow it Great White Sharks, the numbers drop to 314 attacks of which 80 are fatal in the same time period. Of course, for most of that time, the type of shark attacking was not identified, so it is quite possible that a significant portion of the 400+ fatalities recorded as a shark attack were Great White Shark attacks as well.
On average, there are about 80 shark attacks on humans reported worldwide each year. However, the majority of these attacks are not fatal.
About 50-75 shark attacks happen a year. Less than 20 die.
