What is Shark Finning?
Shark Finning is a terrible act of removing fins from sharks which are then sold. After removing the fins, the shark will then be thrown back into the water. Being unable to swim due to losing their fins, they would then eventually descend onto the bottom of the ocean, dying slowly and painfully.
Shark Finning is not only a horrendous act but it also makes a big impact on the economy and environment. It is also one of the main reason why shark's population decrease over time. With that being said, it will be hard for them to also reproduce since sharks have a really low reproductive system. Adding into that information, 73 million sharks are being killed each year just for their fins which is very wrong.
What is "Shark Fin Soup"?
Shark fin soup is a Chinese delicacy that was stated to be made 1000 years ago. The ability to be able to eat this rare delicacy can change the privileges you have and also your social standings. If being honest, this dish does not have any taste in it nor any nutritional value. Beef stock or chicken stock are added to the dish to make it have flavor and actually taste like something.
Hello Janel,
ReplyDeleteYour 'Shark Finning' blogpost has been an enjoyable read. Similar with your views I do believe that 'shark finning' is a horrible act that serves no positive--logical-- purpose. There are some inaccuracies with your statements at least grammar wise; though its a great post nonethless.
