Scientists confirm culling does not keep people safe; culling kills ocean wildlife.
Despite lacking scientific legitimacy, shark culling has occurred in NSW since the 1930s and in QLD since the 1960s. We have non-lethal solutions that are effective strategies for public safety and don’t involve killing animals.
It is far past time to update these archaic methods with new, non-lethal and more effective technologies such as drone surveillance, technology driven alert systems, personal shark deterrents, shark research and education.
