Sharks that attack humans should be killed
I MASSIVELY disagree with sharks being killed when they attack humans! When you think of a shark what do you think of? The attacks? Well that’s predictable these days. We all know about the jaws movie right, well have you wondered how fake that is? In 2024 there were only 47 attacks in total. Sharks are getting killed day in and day out, while babies are being born at around the same rate as sharks are getting killed.
It is their home!
Imagine a world with no ocean, horrible right? Well that’s where the fish sharks and many other beautiful creatures come from. If we get rid of the sharks the fish population will exceed too high. Sharks live in the ocean. We live on land. If we go into each other’s homes then we will get confused especially the sharks that can’t communicate with us. When we go into their waters they will think we are fish/food because they don’t know that attacking people is wrong. Just imagine you’re sitting on your couch one day then you hear and bang at your door you open it and there’s a shark. What’s your first thought, to attack or get rid of it right? Well think about that in the sharks position about how they would feel if you showed up at their front door.
We are a bigger risk to sharks than they are to us!
When you think of shark attacks you probably think they happen every single day. This is not true. Around 65-70 attacks happen each year. This means that around 0.0000008125% of people are attacked each year. There are so many more people in the world that have never or will never be attacked by a shark. 274,000 sharks are killed each day. 273935 more sharks are being killed in a day than people are getting attacked each YEAR! Every year we eat pigs, cows, chickens and fish. Sharks are eating fish, and many more animals from our land so if a shark wants to eat a killer whale let it. You should let sharks eat any creatures from the ocean because they need food to eat. The pigs we eat are like their fish, the cows we eat are like their whales that they eat. We eat our meat from our land so let them eat their meat from their land. Sharks are on top of the ocean food chain like we are on top of the WHOLE entire food chain. Do we eat sharks? Here’s your answer: YES. fish and chip shops call shark dog fish and lots of people buy this so that means we are eating them more often than us.
Movies about sharks are stereotypical!
If you watch a jaws movie the first thing you’ll think is all the bad things that the sharks are going to do. When you watched Jaws, did you think it was real? Well its not Jaws was only BASED on a true story not the real story. When you watch a shark movie like Jaws, the sharks go around killing everyone in their way, while in real life sharks only kill about 4-5 people a year. Sharks movies are over exaggerated and way over the top. There’s no way that an evil shark is going to hunt you down to try to eat you. We are the ones killing sharks day by day. Sharks only kill if they think you are a predator or you are a fish. Sharks would never kill a human on purpose. Yes sharks attack but that’s only because they might be hungry or think they are in danger.
Conclusion
Have you finally realized that sharks are the victims, we are killing millions of sharks while sharks are only killing very few people a year. Sharks don’t know that they are doing the wrong thing but we can know that we are. We know it’s wrong to kill sharks but you’re doing it to get back at them for eating us as their food while we eat them for our food.
The Pike River Mine disaster happened on the 19th of november on the West Coast of New Zealand. The disaster killed 29 men in a methane explosion with only 2 survivors. This is New Zealands worst mining disater since 1914. The bodies are still in the mine. All the families and friends where devastatated and angry that people didnt go into save them. The mine had to give families 110,000 dollars each but they couldn’t afford that so they gave them 5,000 dollars and had to shut down the mine because they couldnt sell the coal.
