Far to many shark attacks occur across the world, God has given us dominion over the animals yet we allow ourselves to be attacked? We should be sweeping our oceans clean of these killers.

A bigger problem is the anglo population. There are far too many anglo parasites so we should be sweeping the world clean of those parasites.

How can you people be so ignorant? We have the ability to cleanse our oceans of these killer, why would we not? If we choose not to destroy them, we should at least provide netting around the beaches of the world to prevent attacks.

Perhaps you should educate yourself on the meaning of ignorant.
Nets don't stop sharks.
Sharks have just as much right to be in the oceans & rivers as you do.
Why would we want to cleanse the oceans of magnificent animals like sharks anyway?

Cars kill far more people than sharks, don't hear you squealing about them though.

Very interesting but I'm Canadian! My Dad taught me that an animal is an animal wild or domesticated and they think and act like animal. And guess what he was an American.

No wonder the world is as f/ucked up as it can get. Supposedly run by a country that is fast crumbling away under their own debt, initiates wars under the guise of "the war on terrorism" that they can't afford to fight. But the best one is the fact that they killed nearly 3000 of their own people in the 911 attacks that they organised and executed to try and win their own people over so they can start this so called "war on terrorism".
LOL....so you are a conspiracy theorist to boot? Damn, your are one stupid SOB....I hope you are not typical for Australians for their sake

I really don't understand why sharks are a protected specie for?

After all, Sharks would make a great food source seen there number's are quite high.

In times past some species were nearly wiped out completely, they've since been protected & their numbers are on the rise again.

The truth is no one really knows how many is out there.

From what I understand the main reason humans & sharks are coming into contact with each other more nowdays is because humans are travelling into more remote locations in higher numbers.

The stupidity of your averasge american is shown right here. How can you possibly believe that 911 was executed by terrorists who specialise in cheap but very deadly tactics usually involving crude home made bombs and organised by very small groups? The only terrorists capable of 911 is a very large group with access to large amounts of money and capable of perfect precision military planning. Doesn't sound like islamic terrorism to me, more like the US government. 911 was just one big expensive fireworks display to fool dumb americans into going to war. Remember the reason for invading Iraq? Weapons of mass destruction. Where any ever found? No. Once again your government decieved you into entering another war which was unneccessary.
Wow, do you seriously actually believe that?
Your tin foil hat a bit tight or something is it?

I agree with you there Orion, but Western Aussie's should cultivate sharks (Not wipe them out to destroy the food chain in the Ocean) to create jobs, boost the economy in that region, scientific research, food consumption and lower shark attacks.

However, only take it to a certain degree not to jeopardize the lost of the shark species.

Daily Horoscope for May 23

Leo

You're in a very idealistic mood today, making it almost impossible for you to view loved ones in their true colors. If they've got any faults you won't see them because you'll have blanked them out. This rosy vision of your nearest and dearest is fine if it doesn't last long but it will cause problems if it persists and you continue to brush any problems under the carpet.
