I am afraid we are years away from an electronic solution to this problem of interactions of white sharks with Massachusetts beach goers.

Because of the successful proection of seals and white sharks, we are going to have to live with the new normal of shark incidents as they have done for years in Florida, California , Australia, and other places. -Tom

Roy Scheider already showed us how to solve the Cape Cod shark problem.

Just invite Rosie O’ Dumbbell to take a swim there. After taking a bite of that toxic whale, the sharks will get the heck out and never return.

Grey Seal Fur coats Fur Hats Etc. Any parts of the meat or other parts not consumable for people or animal feed dump or use as bait out at least 50 miles from the coast.

Time to seriously modify the marine mammal act.

"Y'all know me. Know how I earn a livin'. I'll catch this bird for you, but it ain't gonna be easy. Bad fish! Not like going down to the pond and chasing bluegills and tommycods. This shark, swallow ya whole. Little shakin', little tenderizin', down you go. And we gotta do it quick, that'll bring back the tourists, that'll put all your businesses on a payin' basis. But it's not gonna be pleasant! I value my neck a lot more than three thousand bucks, chief. I'll find him for three, but I'll catch him, and kill him, for ten. But you've gotta make up your minds. If you want to stay alive, then ante up. If you want to play it cheap, be on welfare the whole winter. I don't want no volunteers, I don't want no mates, there's too many captains on this island. Ten thousand dollars for me by myself. For that you get the head, the tail, the whole damn thing."

Feed them our homeless heroin addicts and drug pushers/smugglers/traffickers.

I like sharks, I think we should feed them something else so that they don’t eat as many of those cute stinky seals.

Everyones gotta eat.

and Druggies need to die.

Leave it alone, nature will balance itself.
More sharks -> fewer seals -> fewer sharks.

No electronic solution needed.
Let the Mass Native American Indians cull the herds, and deprive the sharks of food.
Surely there must be some of them left?

Tell the moonbats to stop trying to alter the environment.. same as they like telling western ranchers or oil men not to build fences or drilling rigs.

Hey Cap., just think of it as a government jobs program
What with all the studies, committees, panels, surveys, councils etc. this problem will generate from both the state and federal levels, payed for by the taxpayers, the MA employment rate could get a real boost. PLUS, all these gov't workers could be housed "on site" in the soon-to-be-empty rental properties thereby helping to mitigate the drop in tourism.

The author is a liar. Canada has a seal hunt with annual quotas to keep their seal population stable. The US does not and has an uncontrolled seal population. The US needs a seal hunt too.

Reducing US seal populations will not be ‘replaced by Canadian seals’ because the Canadian populations are stable. It’s like saying don’t weed your lawn because your neighbors weeds will just move into your lawn.
