perfect, so it only makes sense to kill every human who ever did harm to another.

PS: more humans fkn with nature,....nature will win.
Killing a shark because it did what it does, like you, eating a fkn cow , makes total sense. :roll:
Stay out of the water then, fknut!
No sharks, no fish, no MC Fish

Why?

I belive such actions may be necessary to preserve a community, or a society.. You know for survival. But perhaps not in all cases. I would never kill anything, except to eat it, much like a shark would.

Could you elaborate on why they take such actions on bears nowadays?

Kindest regards,

FIRST , read this post :
tautologies wrote: ...
Secondly there is no increase in attacks at all...it just varies from year to year...
From 1828 to August 2013 there have been 121 total unprovoked shark attacks in Hawaii. Eight of these were fatal attacks - the last being in 2004.

... .
SO if Ya count the number of swimmers that Have gone in the water at Hawaii
since 1900, then compare it to the number of deaths ; it's obvious that a "Normal" Shark
wants Nothing to do with a Human. So the government only wants to take out
the sharks that see Humans as Easy-prey , (the Sick ones) that can't hunt there
normal meal.

Same goes for Bears .

Now Mountain-lions that eat children ---
Yea , are gonna be shot as well, even though that would be considered normal behavior
for that particular Cat !!

Rabid Dogs get shot by government personal as well.

I understand. Thank you for the perspective.

So, it is based on a determination on the behavior of a specific shark (or bear) that deviates from their expected behavior and starts to prey on humans.

Like a sick shark that cannot hunt fish, so they go for easier prey?

:-(

I still feel sad for the sharks (bears), but I guess there is some supporting evidence to this concept, or hope there is and its not the type of "caseria de bruja".

Kindest regards, and so sorry about the kid that got bit, and other shark attack victims.

I know it's not a popular belief but yes I think you should hunt down and kill a shark that is eating humans. They use to do that in Hawaii... Catch a few sharks in the area of an attack. I also believe in the Death Penalty. Sick fkrs should die.

But then again I also realize its not that easy. It sure does make me nervous as hell to go in the water.

Maybe I should get a carry and conceal license for kitesurfing.

They tried to hunt sharks but found it had no impact...AND they usually could not find the right shark.

I think it is the completely wrong mentality to think we can kill our way into the ocean. Accept the risk or stay out.

I do know that in the end... You except the risk or get out.

That is what makes sense but we are suppose to be the top of the food chain. Of coarse it's only hearsay but don't they kill a lion in Africa that eats a human, don't they kill a bear in Alaska that eats a human... Blah blah blah

Just curious but I wonder if a shark learns from an attack that he doesn't like human or if he learns that he wasn't hurt from a human, and does it more. Or maybe a shark is just a mindless hunting machine.

That is so true, most people who got eaten by Sharks are not listed as eaten by Sharks.
