    The time period during which a shark sleeps is referred to as "inactive." This term implies that the shark is not active or engaged in any significant movements or behaviors during this period.

They are also known to be territorial and have a tendency to be inquisitive, which increases the likelihood of encountering humans. Additionally, bull sharks have a powerful bite and are capable of inflicting serious injuries.
