Simple solution: stop killing/eating all of their food sources. Animals adapt and sharks will eventually adapt to eating humans.


Of course, this is a very ignorant response backed by no scientific evidence. But, I stand by it.

fricked up if true. There were some guys chumming from a boat just off the beach here the other day. Dozens of people in the water but they didn't care.

read all the way to the end for the chumming part

but technically don't all fishermen chum for mackerel? the Kure Beach Pier here is open all night. they get sharks at night. I don't think the fishermen were the cause of the attacks.

That's not really the issue here. Sharks have plenty of food.

Yes but why the hell would you do that from a pier near swimmers? I've never seen anyone chum from the pier or beach here but I have a feeling it wouldn't end well foe the chummer. Not saying I'd be the guy but pier and surf fishermen already get a talking to on a regular basis.

Territoriality. It's just a theory that I happen to agree with.

Thanks for bumping this thread.

quote:

RODANTHE, NC (WBTV) - A second Outer Banks shark attack, in as many days, has been reported on a beach in Rodanthe, NC. This time the victim is a 17-year-old boy according to the National Park Service.

According to officials, he was swimming with several others when the shark bit him. He sustained serious injuries to his right calf, buttocks, and both hands.

He was reportedly treated on scene then taken by lifeflight to Norfolk, VA for further medical care.

No other swimmers were injured.

"This could very well be the same shark," one official told WBTV and adds that the same shark as Friday's attack could be circulating the area.

Friday, a Charlotte man was injured on an Avon, NC beach when beach goers say he was bitten in the back by a shark Friday morning. He suffered various injuries to his right leg and lower back and was being treated at Norfolk General Hospital in Virginia for his injuries. No other swimmers were injured Friday.

Shark attacks on North Carolina beaches have been in the news multiple times over the past a few weeks.




Now two: OBX

I got caught in a rip current a couple months ago in Florida. Scared the shite out of me. Made it out alive thankfully.
