Australia fends off shark bites with new tech and old


Unknown (AFP) – Australia’s oceans are teeming with sharks, with great whites topping the list of species that might fatally chomp a human. Authorities have adopted a multi-layered approach — deploying drones, fixing acoustic trackers to sharks so they can be detected by listening buoys near popular beaches, alerting people in real time with a mobile app, and stringing up old-fashioned nets.
