Inevitable I suppose. Think right decision.

Apologies for changing my position several times. These sharks are fine normally but something not normal is going on.

At least now we should not have any more incidents which is good all round.

Good decision. Let things calm down, go out there and figure out what’s going on. Then make sure only seroious operators have access as well as putting restrictions on the number of boats that can visit at the same time.

So why did you?

It is a statement not comparison, culling in Australia did not decrease the number of the shark attacks, i.e. culling is useless. I am not a native English speaker, let’s use arguments instead of semantics.

When I see videos like this, I also support the decision to give a break until a strategy figured out.

culling is sad, disgusting and very hard to justify. it does however work in certain circumstances

These guys are lucky no one was hurt. Especially a guy with yellow fins towards the end of the video.

many of the divers need a break until they can learn some basic skills... that has little to do with the shark looking for a snack.

When you find yourself "walking" down the back of a shark, generally it's bad ju ju, been there

Culling in Australia didn't decrease the number of attacks therefore all culling is useless. There is a name for that argument, and that name is Faulty Generalization.

I disagree. No evidence I’ve seen supports culling. Just gets the wrong fish shark and everything else.
