The next time shark fin soup sounds good to you, think again. Sharks are caught for their fins [approximently 3-5% of their body weight], which are then cut off. Then the shark is thrown back, sometimes still alive. This means that about 95% of the shark is wasted. Sharks can't regenerate their fins, so they sink to the bottom, where they drown,starve, bleed to death, or are eaten alive by other sharks.
This horrible practice is banned in several countries, but in others, it is legal, and shark fin soup is a delicacy. You can help stop this awful practice by not eating shark fin soup. With no demand, there will be no supply. So stop shark finning!

400 million years of evolution, and only a few years of shark finning, and we have seen 90% decimation! It\'s not just soup though, they are using it for everything! You can buy shark spines for dogs to chew on at the pet store now!
