Title: Culling of sharks for the sake of safety? Written by: duddy on Jan 28, 2014 (https://biology-forums.com/gallery/47/27605_22_04_12_6_47_36.jpeg) (https://biology-forums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=3009) The culling policy aims to reduce shark attacks by killing white, bull and tiger sharks over 3 metres long off the coast of Western Australia. Research on previous culls reveal no scientific evidence that destroying sharks reduces attacks, and the cull has caused outrage from conservation groups. Two experts from the University of Western Australia explain: "Pre-emptively killing sharks is a response based on emotion rather than of scientific data."
