Why are sharks killed when they attack a surfer / swimmer.

What exactly did the shark do to deserve to die?

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

I always make sure there is a juicier option than me further out to sea! And no, they should not be killed. It shits me to tears.

It would come from the thinking they use with other predators, that the shark will get a taste for manflesh and keep hunting us. While it's true for big cats I don't think sharks even like the taste of us :lol:

It’s been proven they don’t, they usually take a bite spit it out and move on.

Always wonder why people dress to look like a seal before they go surfing?

Hmmm this tops all previous WTFs I’ve ever thought or even imagined.

Pneumatic tube system used to transport specimens etc between clinical areas and the lab etc - I know I’ll put a placenta in a plastic bucket ( not even in a tube canister) put it in the PTS and press go - what could possibly go wrong :shock: :roll:

You couldn’t make it up - WTF indeed!!!

I'm just imagining cleaning the tube system after it's been plastered with bloody goop. :shock:
