Living in Bermuda my whole life I know how these animals belong here. Killing them is just wrong and Neil knew that better than anyone. Leave the sharks alone!

In the words on Dr Neil Burnie "Once you learn to live with them, they're one of the most magnificent creatures that swims in the sea."

I completely 100% support the no kill policy. Everyone knows where sharks live. Their home is the water. If you don't like it or scared then don't go in the water. But don't kill them for just living in their own home & surviving the way they were made too!

Sharks are a vital to all eco-systems, not only in water but has a ripple effect on land.

One of the appeals in visiting a place like Bermuda is to see a healthy marine ecosystem. This includes key stone and predictor species such as sharks!

Neil was more in synch with what this island and the ocean and this planet need than anyone - if this is what he believed needed to be done, then we need to make it happen, even if he is not here to fulfill his dream.

All sharks within the Bermuda area need to be protected.
