What do sharks get to eat, when they don't have access to stupid Ozzies to feed on ?

Why don't they use nets to keep the sharks away from the beaches? They've worked well off the coast of Durban, SA.

The British Government want to start doing the same here, there plenty of sharks in their party, or is that too much to ask for?

[mikey4444]

Apparently other, much less dangerous things get caught in them Jo ::::::

Clov, in some areas they do, the OZ cost line covers a vast area.

[murraymints]

the problem with nets is they catch other species apart from sharks... sharks do what sharks do..humans do not need to go in the water...they choose to do so , therefore accept the risks...

[ummmm]

I don't think you can write people off as stupid for going in the sea.

[mikey4444]

Ummmm....there are sharks everywhere in the waters surrounding OZ, and yet she still thought it was OK to go into the water. She could have surfed at a beach that had some precautions. The beach is still closed.

I'm with Billy Connolly on this one.....when sharks start following me round the supermarket nipping my behind, I might concede that a cull is in order. Until then, I'll stay out of the water and leave them to enjoy their watery world in peace.

[ummmm]

Compared to how many people go in the water shark attacks are still relatively rare.

What about jelly fish....they kill people too.

[mikey4444]

lol jack !

[anotheoldgit]

You have sunk to a new low with that comment mikey, and you should be ashamed of yourself.

A young girl in the prime of her life has been tragically killed, show a little respect.

[ummmm]

TTT...do you speak to people like that face to face?

People are not morons for going in the sea.

[Old_Geezer]

Marine animals doing what marine animals do and coming close to humans accept the risks too. Humans are predators as well. Surely whatever is found in the nets are edible ? I reckon shark steak can't be that bad.
