Text SHARKATTACK to 40649 and sign the pledge!đŚ
or we could let an unnecessary danger to swimmers die.
No the fuck we canât. Because last I checked humans donât own the fucking ocean, and last I checked, theyâre IMPORTANT apex predators, a super necessary part of the ecosystem. Not to mention NEW YORKERS bite 10x as many people as sharks do a year. More people die from lightning and fireworks than form sharks.
Sharks arenât a problem. They never have been. People are.
if you swim where the sharks are, itâs on you buddy, the animal gotta eat you donât gotta swim
To @keyhollow let sharks die naturally, donât go hunting them. Last I checked thereâs no such thing as an important apex predator. Why on Earth are New Yorkers biting people? Know what we did to lightning? We found ways to deal with them. Iâd say firework damage is usually from stupidity.
To @jeza-red so nobody can enjoy the beach now. The animal doesnât got to eat innocent bystanders that are definitely not fish.
Iâm gonna ignore 95% of that and focus on the apex predator part.
Theyâre super important because they control prey animal populations, of prey animal populations get out of control it can heavily and possibly irreversibly damage flora, other fauna, and land. A keystone predator is literally irreplaceable
AÂ âkeystone predatorâ is nowhere near irreplaceable.
Do you know what keystone means??
First off, calling something a keystone predator is erroneous at best. Second, keystones can be replaced.
No
You literally just have no idea what youâre talking about.
@miasmicsiren If youâre too stupid to read adult content, thereâs even a childrenâs book on the subject!
Cherrypicking sources from shark apologists wonât work for you either.
Ah yes. âShark apologistsâ. Those who defend the problematic behavior of *checks notes* preserving species and protecting the ecosystem.
Sharks arenât even that dangerous to humans!
Not only are shark bites PRETTY DAMN RARE, but they can be easily avoided by taking steps like not swimming where sharks are and utilising specially designed swim suits that prevent the sharks from mistaking you for food, and even shark mail, that stops their teeth piercing your flesh if they do bit you! You can learn how to drive them off in case of an attack and not swim alone to increase your chances of survival, should the worst happen!
Sharks, the majority of the time, bite out of curiosity because they donât have hands. Donât look interesting.
(Also they are absolute BABIES and you should interact them with the guidance of a professional if you have the chance.)
There is a lot going on here but i think what iâm caught on the most is âshark apologistsâ.
wtf is your problem, meamicsiren?? Did sharks beat you up as a kid? Eat your homework? Show me on the doll where the shark touched you.
For real tho, the rest of you have way too much patience for your own good to be dealing with this clown. They wanna accuse us of cherry picking sources (lol @ shark apologists), but they havenât provided a single credible ANY source of their own.
On this day, 8 August 1845, UK Parliament passed an enclosure act, taking away common land, and appointing enclosure commissioners who could enclose more land without submitting a request to Parliament. From the 17th to 20th centuries, the British government passed over 5000 enclosure acts, enclosing 6.8 million acres of common, public land. Often military force was used to crush anyone who resisted. The enclosures were a vital part of the development of capitalism, as they created a whole class of landless people who had no way of surviving other than selling their labour power - the working class.
