Shame we can't train them to stay 3kms off the coast.

That's clearly photoshopped but yeah I've done the Adelaide River tour and those crocs are well trained although I suspect crocs are actually a bit smarter than sharks. I couldn't believe how teeming with crocs the Adelaide river is, that said a couple of years back a prostitute was dropped in off the road bridge and she floated a long way down untouched by the crocs.

Oh here we go.....

Cruise operator Harry Bowman said the 80-year-old crocodile lost his front leg in a shark attack.

I don't think your study and research really counts your talking about little fish in a aqarium not big fish in a friggin huge ocean....

Hmmm...

All the great whites are staying at the cage diving location they are trained now.....10 GWS a day at the circus......

So being that you admit you're training them, would you like to state your ideas on the following?

You get 10 a day at the cage, I would imagine that you have located the cage diving where it is cause it's close to where the sharks are hanging out, ie- near their food source.
Having so many big sharks in one area, has there been any noticeable effect on the population of seals in the area?
They'd have to be eating them faster than the seals are breeding, with 10 big mouths to feed living in the area.
Also, thinking on it further, you're getting reliable numbers of 10 a day; does this mean you've altered their migratory behaviour and now they're putting roots down and deciding to stay?

Boat plus people in the water = food.

Nice inference. I agree, mainly from the complaints of the problem with Fraser Island Dingoes.

Pweedas: ...Once any creature determines that there is free food available with no risk in getting it, they will be there. to take advantage of it...

Dingoes are no longer allowed to be fed by people, it is now an offence and an extremely serious offence on Fraser Island.
Neither do they discern whom wants to see them up close or kept away!
