Egyptian Shark Attack - Cruelty to Sharks?!
I know it's a tragic and horrific event that a woman has been mauled to death by a shark in Egypt, but is it really necessary to torture the shark on capture as they have shown on the news?
Yes, with all due respect, maybe it was the right decision to execute it, now it has the taste for human blood in order to prevent further casualties... BUT
Animals don't think rationally like we humans (or at least most of us) surely they shouldn't be held fully accountable for their actions. They act on instinct, and they have as much right to the oceans waters as we do (on ethical terms).
It has been indicated that there shouldn't of been swimmers out at that time anyway, as well as the fact that the WRONG shark was captured only to be executed after a brutal torturing session?
Is this really right, fair enough, execute it, make it quick and clean, there is no need to put the animal through further torment, what good does it do? It's just an animal trying to survive. Once again, my heart goes out to the family of the victim, but surely the torture of the animal just isn't right, it's not like it had a real choice like humans do before they murder someone. Not only was it the wrong shark, but it just seems wrong to put an animal that cant be held accountable for it's actions through excruciating pain for no logical or constructive reason.

Totally agree with you.
What the hell? These people are on crack. Why are they torturing an animal? Oh. I know why cause their fuckkingg morons. Poor shark.
Human eat animals all the time, and it's totally normal, so why are they being so hypicritical. "survival of the fittest" as the dumb meat eaters say. IF a human can eat a shark, than a shark should be able to eat a human.
We are in the shark's territory the moment we enter the water. It is stupid and cruel to punish them for following their natural instincts. Sharks are going extinct, and this is why. People need to be more like these guys --> http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100913/ap_o…
The shark saw the woman as food so it killed her, just like humans do to animals everyday.
The ocean is the sharks home not the womans, she had no business being in it, what happened to her was her own fault.
I agree with you completely. Humans are just stupid and selfish.
If an animal is trying to protect itself, it shouldn't be killed because it was going with it's natural instincts.
Stupid, stupid people. Executing a shark that killed a human is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. I guarantee that shark isn't thinking "oh this is my punishment for killing that human" as it's being tortured to death.
You are in for some unbelievably hard times. And the funniest thing of all is that you're going to bring it totally on yourself.
why the **** is this in veggie section.
