What constitutes a Shark Attack? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Does a shark have to bite the kayak? or would a hard bump/splash meet the criteria?

Kayakers on another forum were commenting that there is no good means of reporting such an incident, and many of the incidents reported over the years on the forum are not listed in the chart above. I see the Vandenberg incident that is covered on this forum, but are there other incidents that this chart misses?
