A drum line is an unmanned aquatic trap used to lure and capture large sharks using baited hooks. They are typically deployed near popular swimming beaches with the intention of reducing the number of sharks in the vicinity and therefore the probability of shark attack. Drum lines are often used in association with shark nets, which results in shark mortality. However SMART drum lines can be used to move sharks, which greatly reduces shark and bycatch mortality. The use of drum lines has been successful in reducing shark attacks in the areas where they are installed. The topic of shark culling became an international controversy and sparked public demonstrations and vocal opposition, particularly from environmentalists, animal welfare advocates and ocean activists.

- Une drum line, ou palangre de surface, est un piège aquatique utilisé pour capturer de grands requins via des appâts et des hameçons. Ils sont généralement déployés près des zones de baignade (souvent conjointement avec des filets anti-requins) afin de réduire le nombre de requins à proximité et donc le nombre d'attaques. Ce système est introduit en janvier 2014 en Australie occidentale. La question de l'élimination des requins est un sujet de controverse mondial et provoque notamment des réactions d'écologistes et de défenseurs de la cause animale. (fr)
