Not sure that these are all bull sharks, but the average shark attack number is 63 per year.

It is kinda tricky at times because the number is never 100% exact. Why? Because there are always a handful of attacks each year that are "unknown" species. They know it was a shark attack but there is such litte evidence that it is hard to tell which species. Nonetheless if the number is off for any speices it is a very tiny number, a few at most, due to the fact that on avg there are less than 100 attacks a year (people and boat).

With bulls there is a total of recorded of 110 attacks since the ISAF (international shark attack file) started stacking records. Out of those 110 attacks 23 have resulted in the victims death. The number is third highest next to tigers and white sharks.

With bulls there are only a couple attacks per year.

The ISAF is an EXCELLENT source when it comes to data on shark attacks. Check them out!
