Sharks need to be prioritized. Over 100 million are killed annually. The true number could go as high as 273 million. Sharks killed an average of 5 people annually.

As an apex predator, they are vital to our Ocean's Ecosystem and a clear & irreplaceable indicator of the health of our Ocean. They could be extinct within the next decade if we don't act, leaving our Oceans unhealthy & dying. Oceans comprise 71% of the Earth's surface and 97% of the Earth's Water, leaving the Ocean's health vital to our very own survival.

This isn’t just for the Sharks’ health – it’s for yours. Shark meat (including fins) carries warnings due to its high mercury levels from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Environmental Defense Fund, and the World Health Organization. If you want to know what mercury does, just google “mercury poisoning” and prepare to be horrified.
Let's unite to help stop this inhumane act on Nature's beautiful creatures and help save the Humans! Our Children deserve a beautiful future.
