I hear you. Not many like us who believe in the dreaded "land Shark" !Hawaiis wrote:2300 people are reported missing in the USA everyday. I won't be surprised that some of those end up in the tummy of Sharks.
..but you are just making shit up to support an argument of a highly hypothetical increase in shark attacks. That is disingenuous way of arguing...Hawaiis wrote:2300 people are reported missing in the USA everyday. I won't be surprised that some of those end up in the tummy of Sharks.
Jeez you really hate sharks!Hawaiis wrote:2300 people are reported missing in the USA everyday. I won't be surprised that some of those end up in the tummy of Sharks.
But that´s exactly the problem. We (humans) destroy their natural feeding grounds (far offshore!!!) by fishing extensively with these huge commercial boats and nets! This is not sustainable!!!stakas wrote:I don't wanna kill any shark. I just want to use scientific or whatever methods to harass the f*** out them so they can learn it: "human in the water= get the f*** out " I think it can be done. Sharks can do their sharky things at the middle of the pacific and we can do our kitesurfing near the shore.
An overly hippie view of the issue, and probably no more than a small percentage of the problem. Sharks fill a niche in the ocean environment - which extends all the way to the beach. They don't live out in the depths way the hell out the middle of nowhere, like some redneck hill hermit who only comes into town when he runs out of moonshine and sheep . . .WaveRider001 wrote:But that´s exactly the problem.

The result is, that sharks are looking for other feeding areas and come closer to the shores. But that´s not their fault, isn´t it???
We have to respect the ocean, sealife and sharks because it´s their "world" and we have to bahave like "guest" in the ocean. Without sharks, the whole ocean would be in an "imbalance". This also means, not to support the big commercial fishing industry!
I feel very sorry for all victims of shark attacks, but their are much more other risks we don´t even talk about!
Respoect the ocean!
