Conrad, I really can't understand what is the big deal with chumming in the Ocean? Food is a natural thing! The Shark doesn't know what chum is and has no concept of the difference between a whale dying and being consumed than a guy with a bucket of chum? We have to stop putting our values onto the Sharks! The are Apex eating machines and thats what millions of years of finding dead, dying, and hurt things in the ocean has created! The are not bears! Their Brains a tinny in comparison and work more off stimulation as a lower animal! Bears are very intelligent and can solve complex problems, where sharks are reactionary and stimulated by the need to feed until the food is gone! It doesn't know or care where it is coming from, they only know it is food! I can't understand why introducing food into the environment will do anything other than trigger a natural and automatic response which makes it very natural, because it is what they do! They don't judge the source they just eat the result!
