Stop Sharks fin!

Stop shark fining because your killing those poor creatures in millions and now you should know that 95% of the sharks are wiped out since the 1970's.Not only is the finning of sharks barbaric, but their indiscriminate slaughter at an unsustainable rate is pushing many species to the brink of extinction. Since the 1970s the populations of several species have been decimated by over 95%. Due to the clandestine nature of finning, records are rarely kept of the numbers of sharks and species caught. Estimates are based on declared imports to shark fin markets such as Hong Kong and China.Shark fin soup, which can easily cost $100 a bowl, is often served at wedding celebrations so that the hosts can impress their guests with their affluence. Because there is such a high demand for shark fins, traders can make a lot of money from shark fin, but it is the restaurant owners who really "make a killing" in this foul trade.It is also done by long lining which is made of monofilament and are used mainly to catch tuna, swordfish and shark. Their length ranges from a mile to over 100 miles and is kept near the surface using floats made of styrofoam. At intervals of a hundred feet or so (30 meters) secondary lines are attached and baited with whatever is at hand - fish, squid or even dolphin meat.Shark fin itself is tasteless, it just provides a gelatinous bulk for the soup which is flavoured with chicken or other stock. Many people, especially the consumers, are unaware of the sufferring that finning causes.

Now a days people are making improvement and that makes me happy by what little were doing on a big topic like this . Which also gives the guarentee and confidence to sharks that actually won't be killed,to make it happen. We as a global issue's class are making people aware of this issue because this is what we have learned and also our action project.It also what we want to do as a class to raise a voice realize how important andcaring they are to us.But look at us we are killing them for something lame which is shark's fin soup.
