Summary Tonight we plunge into Australia's love-hate relationship with sharks. We've gone from fearing and killing them to admiring and conserving them. Are they really man-eaters? Or is man consuming THEM to extinction? Mark Trevorrow speaks to people whose lives have been changed forever by the shark, people who fight to save sharks and people who've had very close encounters of the other kind. In the 70s, the film Jaws helped instill fear of sharks across the globe and many sharks were killed as a result. But today, the Great White shark is protected in some Australian waters. There is a greater push for conservation, especially as some species like the grey-nurse face extinction.
