Federal MP Tim Mander is demanding a shark cull in Queensland’s Whitsunday Islands following a fatal attack on a Victorian man on Monday.
The 33-year-old man was attacked by an unknown shark species and was flown to hospital from Cid Harbour with critical injuries.
Mr Mander says the position of the LNP is ‘people before sharks,’ but the government has resisted calls to reintroduce the drumlines saying it’s taking the advice of experts, as well as introducing better signage warning people not to swim in Cid Harbour.
