My first feelings were start culling the nasty disgusting beasts. However how many people are actually severly injured or killed by sharks as a whole? Also sharks are a keystone species, and who knows the ecological damage that could happen by trying to get rid of sharks.

Sharks are super smart.

Some not so scary vids but quite amazing:

Although it's quite beautiful to be beside, I truly hate the ocean. Wouldn't catch m in the middle of one.

Just kill off every man eating shark in the world.
No more needless shark attacks on people plus there will be more fish for us to eat with these monsters gone.

More people die each year from bee stings.

Shall we kill all the bees?


Hold on, lets just eliminate all humans, then there'll be no more murders committed.

We enjoy the honey bees produce. Sharks don't give us diddley.
If all the bees were gone it would be an agricultural disaster. Not so with sharks being eliminated from the oceans.

It really amazes me that Zackback works overtime to instigate and someone still gets Zackbacked every time.
