Answer

Why does feeding fish near Mallorca beaches cause more bites and harm the ecosystem?

Feeding can make fish lose their natural fear of humans and start nibbling on people, especially where food is regularly offered. This behavior not only raises safety concerns but can also harm the local ecosystem and disrupt natural feeding patterns.
