RE:"Jim, sadly that's not true. The sharks are being killed indiscriminately as well. Some for food, others for their supposed powers to enhance others, still others for the sport of it or because they saw the movie Jaws."

Sadly you don't know that Florida has had a moratorium on commercial shark fishing for many years. 3 miles into the Atlantic and 9 miles into the gulf. Lot's of biters around here.


Jim, FL is one small state.....there are many hunters of shark in the world. The statistics do not favor the sharks.

And for the record, there are several species of sharks that are fairly docile and only eat plankton. And many aggressive, meat eating sharks rarely, if ever, attack man. However, when we kill them, we don't discriminate....they all look alike to us.
