Me too, Terry.
It's their environment and we are just visitors.
I can tell yu most surfers feel the same way.
If you get bitten by one, bad luck. Not really any different to antagonising a snake on land.

[Dazzler]

Yeah, I agree too.. Stupid really .. not like it is a swimming pool.. Kill as many as they like it won't stop the odd attack 

[Just Rick]

Sadly yes over here,Colin again does his own thing,at the moment there is overwhelming objection here by most people,sadly one of the biggest advocates for it this time is the WA Surfing Association (F^#*wits) they say 10 deaths in 13 years is far to high,simple,you don't want to get eaten,don't go in the bloody water

[Doggie 1]

I'm with the crowd on this one.
I agree it is a stupid policy.
Their territory, go and take the risk if you wish to.

[AlanHo]

In the true spirit of the thread title I have to add "we already are" - especially the American military

[FatBoy]

I agree with all of you.  If you don't want to be bitten by a shark, don't go in their habitat.

[Dazzler]

I agree with all of you.  If you don't want to be bitten by a shark, don't go in their habitat.

Yeah, what is a couple of arms and legs between friends..

Now I know why I don't swim in the sea...

I don't even like getting bitten by mozzies

Good point Dazz.
And I suspect more humans die from mosquito bites than shark bites.

But wait.

We kill mossies. 

[rustynutz]

I quite like the taste of shark...can't we just eat them?

[Doggie 1]

We do.
We have shark over here in our F&C shops.

Geez dave I know it's an emotive issue .. But you don't have to swear about it! 

[Doggie 1]

 
I remember as a kid eating shark & chips and it's still the same.
Wouldn't that be the case all over Oz though? 

[rustynutz]

We do.

I meant the ones they are gonna shoot and dump.

We have shark in our Fush & Chup shops too....It's called flake here.
