The Problem With Shark Nets (Spoiler: They Don't Work) Part One
Description
Today I am delighted to invite back Lawrence Chlebeck, Marine Biologist and Senior Shark Campaigner at Humane Society International.
Lawrence reveals the reasons why shark nets are so ineffective as we discuss recent life-endangering net entanglements involving migrating whales and other marine life. He breaks down the outdated technology currently used in Australian waters and what we can do instead.
We also get an update from Lawrence on current campaign success, discuss his contribution to documentary, Envoy - Shark Cull and we do a little dreaming about what ocean policies he would change tomorrow if he could.
I hope you enjoy the episode.
You can connect with Lawrence on Twitter and learn more and put your support behind sharks through Humane Society International and Shark Champions.
If you haven't already, watch Envoy-Shark Cull and hear and see the research for yourself.
