Why is it that dive operators feel compelled to offer shark feeding dives. We do not see safari operators offering " Come to Africa and we will take you on a Lion Feeding trip" People have enough sense to know that hand feeding lions will not have a good out come. So why when some breath compressed gas they do not have the common sense that god gave a goose. A wild animal is just that. Not trained, and as my mother would say "it will be all fun and games until someone is eaten". What are we thinking. OK so who wants to go on a world wide trip? We can start in Africa to feed our hands to the lions, I mean hand feed the lions. Then we zoom off to India because it is imperative to feed the tigers. Just like pussy cats. Just think they just might purr. Of course as long as we are in the area we should dangle a rat or two in front of a king cobra. Next stop north to Russia to play with the Russian wild bears. Cute furry guys we can feed them honey. Next stop the arctic to hand feed polar bears. Hey we can bring them a fish or maybe seal. Might be hard to hand feed a whole seal so we can cut it into steaks. Since this is now taking a while lets head for the Pacific Coast of California and do a shark feed with the great whites. We should save some seal for them. That is how this idea started, with shark feeding. So does this trip sound stupid, yet we read about someone getting bit by a shark while feeding it and dieing every few years. I suppose it make good reading at the Darwin Awards.
So please add any ideas you may have as to where else our world trip should go. Remember we are the ones with the large brain to body ratio and opposable thumbs
