Most sharks like to test their prey before entirely devouring them and that’s why most attacks on humans are just a bite or two. They are known to perform test biting with many familiar and unfamiliar objects in order to determine what kind of object it might be. Humans in any case are not appropriate prey for them as the sharks digestion is too slow to cope with the humans body high ratio of bone to muscle and fat. Even if they attack humans by mistake, a death occurs by loss of blood from the initial limb injury rather than from devouring.
