Most of the attacks in WA have been due to spearfishing. That is - the guys have dead and bloody fish dragging behind them ...and they do this on Scuba, unlike other States. Not good.
Two attacks involved the same people in the same spot doing the same thing a year or so apart: spearing on Scuba.
I think its pathetic and inferior that we wipe out species because a good number of us can't cope or place ourselves in a situation of vulnerability.
Until the global MILITARY jilts Politics and starts standing up for the Protection of Animal species around the Globe, there is little hope as the Greenies just get bullied aside for trying to keep us a better future.
At Bushrangers in Bass Point NSW, I was emotionally distressed underwater during a dive. A Grey Nurse Shark was zeroing in on my 'Distress' and if I hadn't reacted and seen it coming straight at me, I'm sure it would have taken a bite. Instead, the 'surprise' was gone and it slowly circled away.
Does the shark deserve to be culled?
Hell no! Its a shark and we have much to learn from animal species.
...a world without animals and nature is like a mind without imagination.To much Fish and aquatic life is being destroyed NEEDLESSLY for short term financial greed.
To much tinned fish sits on shelves unbought and end up as landfill - what a waste!
