Urge the Queensland Government to Ban Shark Nets - More Than 600 Sharks Die Each Year!

  • af: Georgina B.

More than 600 sharks have been killed off Queensland in the past year as part of the state's shark control program, according to a report on ABC.net.au

Fisheries Minister Bill Byrne said he had no intention of changing or winding back the program despite calls for nets to be removed to protect endangered sharks, whales and other sea creatures.

Animals Rights activists want the Government to consider new technologies such as eco-shark barriers and investment in a shark spotters program.

Mr Byrne said about 20,000 whales passed the Queensland coast each year and entanglements were to be expected - this is not good enough!

Will you join me in urging the Queensland Government to ban shark nets and consider new technologies such as eco-shark barriers and investment in a shark spotters program?
