Can we prevent shark attacks?

A woman suffered life threatening injuries after she was bitten by a shark, 30 metres from the shore at Sydney’s Coogee beach on the weekend. The incident has reignited long-running debate around how/if humans can safely coexist with sharks in the ocean. Today we’ll unpack how governments are trying to mitigate the risk of shark attacks, what technologies exist in this space, and why these attacks seem to be on the rise.
