Sharks, beware: science has found your kryptonite, and it’s not a bigger boat. Researchers have discovered that cuttlefish ink, rich in melanin, can overwhelm sharks’ sense of smell, effectively turning them into ocean-sized scaredy-cats. This breakthrough comes as the U.S. tops the charts for shark attacks, with Florida leading the charge. So, next time you hit the beach, forget the sunscreen—just bring a bottle of cuttlefish ink. Because nothing says “relaxing day at the shore” like carrying a squid’s secret weapon in your beach bag.
