    Cool photos.

    This activity may or may not prove effective as the issue remains that getting sharks to eat injured lionfish given to them by divers is quite a different matter than getting sharks to put lionfish on their regular, independent feeding menu.

    Also, having resident sharks associate divers with getting fed is not without risk.

    It looks a little more like sharks being fed lionfish on the shark dive.
