面对一系列鲨鱼袭击事件，新南威尔士州政府启动了一项大规模无人机防控计划。政府投入3400万澳元，自7月1日起对38个悉尼海滩进行从黎明至黄昏的全年无人机监测1。这一举措旨在通过科技手段增强游泳者的安全感，吸引他们重返海滩。无人机操作员在巡逻中寻找异常运动的生物，自计划启动以来已发现超过750条鲨鱼，并执行了200多次干预行动1。
更广泛的监测网络覆盖了全州范围，总共70个新南威尔士州海滩纳入黎明至黄昏监测计划1。根据鲨鱼追踪站的数据，目前正在追踪1,698条白鲨、938条虎鲨和374条牛鲨1。此前6月发生的一起严重事故加剧了人们的安全顾虑——34岁的教师兼母亲Leah Stewart遭到一条4米长的白鲨袭击，左臂被截肢1。无人机操作员Taha Kafil-Hussain指出，从发现危险到完全清空海滩需要约2至3分钟1。悉尼大学鲨鱼政策专家Christopher Pepin-Neff表示："无人机是我们目前拥有的最好技术"1。
Following a series of shark attacks, Sydney's beaches have launched an ambitious drone surveillance program to enhance water safety and encourage swimmers to return. The New South Wales government has invested 34 million Australian dollars in the initiative 1, which commenced on July 1st with continuous dawn-to-dusk monitoring across 38 Sydney beaches 1. The broader program encompasses 70 beaches across New South Wales, all subject to the same dawn-to-dusk surveillance protocol 1.
Since the program's launch, drone operators have identified more than 750 sharks and conducted over 200 intervention operations 1. Shark tracking stations are currently monitoring 1,698 white sharks, 938 tiger sharks, and 374 bull sharks across the region 1. According to drone operator Taha Kafil-Hussain, the response time from detection of a potential threat to full beach evacuation is approximately two to three minutes 1. The program was prompted in part by a June attack in which 34-year-old teacher and mother Leah Stewart was bitten by a four-meter white shark, resulting in the amputation of her left arm 1.
University of Sydney shark policy expert Christopher Pepin-Neff has endorsed the technological approach, stating that "drones are the best technology we currently have available" 1.
