chumming for cage diving

[Rob Hodgkiss]

some operators chum the water for cage diving, is this an ethical way of making money?

Howzit Rob,
Ethics and Money ... Ying, Yang ... Unfortunetly we all have to make a living. I personally have my reservations about chumming waters and then sending people into cages to view these magnificat beasts. On the one hand, I fear that these fish will start identifing a quick and easy snack with human company, therefore when they come close to shore and swim into a human, they can't ask "WAZZUP DUDE? where's my snack dawg?". They have no hands to call someone's attention so they use their teeth ... need I say anymore? That's the down side ... The positive side of this industry is that more and more people are viewing these amazing creatures in their natural habitat and by doing so, the Great White Shark Conservation Progam will grow in strength because public awareness and opinion is what is going to keep this specie from extinction ... this is my opinion and I'm sure their are many people out there that will disagree with me ... Let it rip dudes!
