Killing sharks to view great white sharks?
African Shark Eco-Charters is an environmentally sensitive company. Although we make our living taking people to see sharks, our aim is to operate our operation with as little impact as possible on the great white sharks (and marine life).We do not believe in using any shark livers or part of the shark thereof to attract great white sharks.
Most livers are usually taken form Sevengill sharks, which are now fished commercially. Many shark viewing companies do use shark livers as attractants. From an ecotourism perspective this is completely wrong.Sharks are vulnerable to overexploitation and extinction. 100 million sharks are killed each year.Already 90% of the world's large shark populations already wiped out, sharks are being depleted faster than they can reproduce. This threatens the stability of marine ecosystems around the world. Sharks are vitally important apex predators. They have shaped marine life in the oceans for over 400 million years and are essential to the health of the planet.
