ABOUT

Which shark deterrent/repellents/mitigation strategies actually work? Companies
use compelling marketing techniques to convince us that their products work,
even if they don't. Not all products have been scientifically tested, and even
if they have, it can be tricky to interpret (or find!) the science. This is a
central space where the science behind shark mitigation measures is collated and
transformed into an easy-to-understand format.


SHARK MITIGATION TYPES

Area mitigation



Area mitigation aims to reduce the spatial overlap between humans and sharks.
For example, shark nets, drumlines, detection (drones, spotters, tracking),
exclusion barriers.

Personal mitigation


Injury reduction



Personal mitigation aims to reduce the likelihood of a shark bite if a shark
comes close to a person (e.g., within 2 meters). For example, electric/
magnetic/ smell/ audio based deterrents or repellants. 

If all else fails and someone is bitten, these products aim to reduce the
severity of the injuries. For example, bite-resistant wetsuit materials or chain
mail suits. 


MITIGATION MEASURE CHECK LIST

Would you like to know if a particular product has been tested? See our quick
check lists to find out.
