The Economy of Shark Finning

I came across this video on Facebook and found it to be moving and enlightening. If you're like me, you'll find it difficult to watch this the whole way through but I challenge you to it. It's raw and wrecked with footage of sharks being destroyed for their fins. It's sad to see this practice reach so far across the globe from where the demand for fins is rooted...Hong Kong and mainland China.

If you'd like to learn more about the practice of shark finning, visit our Shark Finning Learning Center. If you already feel moved to do something about it, buy a wristband, wear it, and tell your friends and family who likely have no idea this is happening.
