I heard about this earlier. Not a shark fan at all. If you need info out of me don’t worry about waterboarding me just put me in open water with my toes dangling and I confess all my sins. Flatlander thing I guess. I’d rather kiss a rattlesnake.

Eh... the ocean is a big place. Their prey is back, which IS a conservation success story. We need to support functioning food webs, you can’t pick and choose to let parts of the puzzle exist but throw out others. If the food is there, something will be there to eat it.


I don't want to see them wiped out but it is reasonably easy to control apex predator populations and the effects they have. When you have animals that are an ever present danger and start to drastically change how humans interact with the environment then it's time to reassess the number of those predators that exist.

White sharks range as far north as Alaska and they can be found there year round in open water, their northern range is limited only by prey. They also do not care for Orcas as Orcas will actively hunt and kill them.

I asked the question because all the stories you ever hear about sharks are south.Never hear of them up north.Interesting.
