| Designated shark-killing zones will be established off Perth and the state's South West, as part of an aggressive new state government policy aimed at reducing the risk of shark attacks.
Under the plan, baited lines will be deployed 1km off the coast, around the clock from September to April, in a bid to catch sharks that stray near to popular beaches and surf breaks.
The state government will also enlist commercial fishermen to kill any shark larger than 3m spotted in these new so-called "marine monitored areas".
