"Hislop claims the sharks have been protected for all the wrong reasons. “Dolphins, sea turtles and millions of creatures out there that we love need our protection. But Great White Sharks need no protection. They are at the top of the food chain. They can live to be one hundred years old and eat a few dolphins and sea turtles every week. “If a conservationist killed just one Great White Shark and then retired, he would do more good for dolphins and sea turtles than he could have done in his entire career.”
Vic needs to stop being so narrow minded and realize that Great Whites are beautiful creatures and need protection! When we enter the water, we are in their world and have to respect that. It's no different than a hiker going in the forest at yellowstone and being eaten by a Grizzly. Should we go exterminate all the grizzly bears because they eat people who cross them?
