SHARK FINNING
According to wildlife conservation much of the sharks' fin trade uses fins cut from living sharks, called finning. Because shark meat is worth much less, the now finless and often still-living sharks are thrown back into the sea to make room for more of the valuable fins. In the ocean, the sharks either die from suffocation or are eaten because they are unable to move normally.
This is done is a process called finning where the fins of the shark is cut from living sharks. After the fins have been cut off, the remainder of the fish which is often still-living, is thrown back into the sea. When returned to the ocean, the finless shark is unable to swim and sinks to the ocean bottom and dies a slow death
Shark finning has increased over the past decade due to the increasing demand for shark fins such as for Chinese shark fin soup and traditional cures
Shark specialists estimate that anywhere between 38 million-100 million sharks are killed for their fins, annually
Numbers of some shark species have dropped as much as 80% over the last 50 years
Comments will make even a greater impact
