The tiger shark that contained an entire arm and part of the torso of a hapless Cuban is in fact a sand tiger shark which has only been responsible for two (provoked) fatalities since records began. Also Delko says the shark will eat anything as long as it is alive, this is also inaccurate as tiger sharks are known to also eat carrion.
What is referred to as a tiger shark has a pointed nose and dagger-like teeth. Tiger sharks have blunted noses and irregular shaped teeth.
