Ok, i consider myself semi-intelligent but i just dont understand this....

Ok so a shark has a munch on a surfer and now we have to kill the shark. Do we just hang around and any sharks we see just tap them on the dorsal and say "excuse me mr bitey, you didnt by any chance happen to take a chunk out of a surfer in a wetsuit cause you thought it was a seal?"

I mean surely anyone surfing acknowledges that whilst entering the ocean you do so on the terms of its favoured inhabitants - namely sharks and other strong biting creatures that will take you fucking leg right off it it so pleases.

If these terms arent favourable then stay right out of the ocean. We dont generally try and bulldoze Everest when a climber so dies so surfers harden the fuck up.

i may be wrong, but i believe part of the reason is that once a shark has had a crack at a human then they can "get a taste for it" and there is an increased probability that it will attack again.

yes it is a strange one, as they're just being sharks i guess.

I heard about this guy who broke into a lion's den at the zoo and got mauled and people were talking about how there should have been better defences put up to prevent people getting into the cage a friend of mine suggested setting up some kind of deterrent for example, putting some sort of fierce animal in the cage, which would attack anybody who climbed in

If he ate my brother i'd just get flake at the fish and chip shop.

I can't believe the guy calling for the shark to be killed!!! and he calls himself a surfer!!

Lot of surfers are wankers and they seemed to have added idiots to the ranks, so a few less isnt going to have me upset at all
It's an avoidable thing, Sharks live in the ocean, they bite things and eat them, it's what they do, it's fairly much all they do and theyre suprisingly good at it. We live on land, we wander around and spend our days dodging mostly other stupid humans in vehicles to stay alive.
If you dont want to get bitten and eaten, don't go play in the water when ones about, I would have thought that was fairly simple really.

LMFAO!

As for the shark, I believe Dean is correct. It's to do with the fact that the shark has now proven that it is capable of such a thing and killing it before it does it again is the only option. It's cruel, but hey Human > Shark anyday. Well apart from Saddam, Osama, Hitler etc but you get my point

Maybe he/she is jaded and just cbf anymore so surfers have to do.

I reckon we've just over fished so much that the poor fuckin' sharks are looking further, dunno why they choose surfers though, obviously got a thing for rubber.
