TWENTY Bull sharks have been snapped being lovingly hand fed by a human feeder eighty feet under the ocean. Pictures show these incredible creatures happily swimming around the feeder and taking food directly from his hand. Other pictures show the feeder actually stroking the predator as though it was a little puppy dog. The largest bull shark clearly dominates while the smaller sharks follow its lead. Underwater photographer Luis Javier Sandoval (35) wanted to show sharks behaving in a human-friendly manner to try and change most people’s perspective of sharks as killing machines. Pictures
