Egypt to remove shark nets
[ad_1]
The resorts of Hurghada are removing the mesh barriers previously installed on the beaches in order to protect tourists from sharks. It was considered necessary to remove the grids at the Egyptian Institute of Oceanography, reports almasryalyoum.com.
According to experts, algae collects on the net, which attracts fish, and this, in turn, attracts sharks. Thus, this measure is counterproductive.
As more effective measures, a researcher at the Institute of Oceanography, Mahmoud Maati, called the installation of five-meter towers to monitor coastal waters, the presence of speed boats at every resort and the chipping of sharks.
