The saddest part is this shark is likely to be hunted down, and killed, although more likely other great whites will be killed instead.

No it wont, in south africa, great whites are a protected species. but these tours are bringing sharks closer to humans, and closer to beaches used by humans. the sharks are now getting more of a taste for humans.
This is why there are now more attacks in Australia, because baiting/chumping (can't remember what it is called) is done not far from shore, becuase companies make more money by doing more tours per day, for the thrill seeking public. I think it is time to stop these tours. if you want to swim with sharks, go skinny dipping with one.
