That would require far too much forward thinking......Could it be someone who is against the tourism in parts like here, and encouraging sharks to change their ways?

I remember that day well Duncan when we see the remains of a very large cow in bits floating at sea. I can also remember what the authorities were more concerned with as well when the skipper of our boat pointed it out to them. As they say. Only in Egypt. See you in 2 weeks.The carcasses were right after Eid where they slaughter animals as part of the festival so probably simply garbage disposal. The ones from the container ship died en route and were tossed over board.

EL-ARISH, Egypt (AP) — A shark tore the arm off an elderly German tourist at an Egyptian Red Sea resort, killing her almost immediately, security and diving officials said Sunday, only days after sharks badly mauled four other European tourists in the waters.my hepca email has been returned as their inbox is full. I will keep posting until it gets delivered though.

Firstly, this behaviour by Oceanic Whitetips is absolutely atypical insofar as the 'where' and 'what'. Presently, the missing piece of the puzzle seems to be the 'why'.
Secondly, the knee jerk cull of the two OWT and Mako which followed the first incedents must not be allowed to continue.
Thirdly and on a personal basis, if further a cull is insigated official or otherwise, my son (CJ) or I will will be forced reconsider if we are ever dive in or give patronage to the Egyptian Rea Sea again. Since CJ started his diving at the age of seven (he is now thirteen) we have accumulated over 40 weeks diving in the Egyptian Red Sea. If a cull were to occur I would take the view that the diving would be the lesser and the Egyptian Authorities are not committed to marine conservation. In which case, we would have to reconsider our support to the diving infrastructure in the Egyptian Red Sea.

the authorities have to make it look like the threat is over and something is being done. Heads roll when things can't be controlled. So culling a few sharks vs millions of $$$ and job security? Guess who loses every time?
