I'm with Skip: KILL THE SHARKS...Nathan Lee - Diver/ResearchAugust 23, 2006 at 22:34:41I'm with Skip. Kill the sharks. The main reason is because there is "zero" evidence of why we should keep sharks around. Marine Biologists like to make the argument of how shark are an important part of our ecosystem, but offer no evidence or examples of why this they believe this to be true. The only sensible example any of these biologists were able to come up with is
fear of an exploding prey population like seals or other prey fish. However, this is also a mute argument because there are areas all over the world where starving populations can actually use the help of an exploding prey population, and humans can always over fish or hunt to compensate this affect. Let me also add that at one point humans did hunt sharks to the brink of extinction.
When this happens researchers usually find some kind of imbalance or abnormality in the ecosystem, but in the case of the shark scientist noticed NOTHING. The bottom line is, there are no good reasons for keeping sharks around, but there are several good reasons for why we should kill them. I have an open mind if you disagree with me, give me one good example as to why sharks are an important part of out ecosystem.
I wish you luck because so far no MBs have been able to give us anything solid. |
