Do you favour a cull, or feel it's a complete waste of time?

Waste of time

Snark nets work well

Shark attacks seem to be on the increase around Oz.

Yes, this was my take on a cull as well.



They do - I'm wondering when the sharknado is going to happen...

Now that their natural predator, the human, has been taken out of the loop.

Saw the channel 7 helicopter flying over yesterday and I said to my wife "I wonder if that's another shark attack then?" Sure enough...

My Mrs dives, she was at Rotto 2 weeks ago diving and going back next weekend. She's pretty much in the ocean at least once a week all year round. She's not worried about sharks and we are both against killing them. Her philosophy is "when it's your time, it's your time"!! :cool:

South Africa has used shark nets for decades and in areas where they are installed, shark attacks are virtually unheard of

Don't be ridiculous - Surely helicopters and an army of manual spotters are much more cost effective than static, proven shark nets...

There have been zero shark attacks on football pitches this year alone.

Re: Yet another shark attack.......
 

Seems to be the perfect application for a drone, equipped with a high-definition camera and / or other mechanisms to detect sharks in the water and relay their position back to shore. Got to be more cost effective than a helicopter, but maybe not a static net?

The woman who died, 60 year old Doreen Collyer, emigrated from Chester 5 years ago to be closer to her son and grandchild :( She was a nursing lecturer at Perth's Edith Cowan University.

Going out killing them (sharks) really makes me angry. :mad: It's completely dumb and anyone who goes in the water knows what they may come up against.

Re: Yet another shark attack.......
 

I agree

A totally pointless exercise

People being killed by sharks is not cool but going into the ocean makes you part of the food chain............
