White sharks are protected in Canada also. - Tom
Saw a documentary years and years ago that showed how sharks would avoid a line between two electrodes with a small current flowing between them.
Seems like a system of electrodes could keep a beach shark free..............
I know. They read the “NO SHARK FISHING” signs and tweeted their buddies.
What with the bluefin fishery now open in Canada, perhaps it’s all the chum being flung that’s drawing them up. After all, people believe that it’s the chum thrown by the MA shark watchers that draw them in there.
Yeah, it’s a stupid idea....for both Canada and MA...but they gotta come up with SOMETHING to justify getting that taxpayer funding.
The one action that would remedy the problem, removing the protections on seals and white sharks, is just too simple and doesn’t require the growth of gov’t. agencies with the subsequent increase demand for taxpayer money, so it will NEVER be implimented.
