Save Our Sharks

You may be thinking "why should we save our sharks?" Well, I will tell you.

Over one million sharks are killed each year due to hatred, fear, sport, fishing, shark fin soup, ect. live sharks are pulled up onto a boat & than the fins on the still alive shark are sliced off with a very sharp knife & thrown into a pile. After that the rest of the now finless shark is thrown off the boat to die. And the reason for this barberic practice..... For a bowl of soup. So imagine that someone cuts off your arms & legs & tosses you into the ocean, you will drown. Now you kinda get an idea of how a shark feels when it gets it's fins chopped off just for a stupid bowl of shark fin soup.
This poaster reads:
The shark in your soup had His fins chopped off.
Then was returned to the ocean to die an accnizing death.
You'll be happy to know the onions suffered not in the least.

For every shark attack on humans, over 1,000000 sharks are killed. Every shark attack on a person is truely an accident or because you are in the sharks terretory. Most or every time a shark is killed by people it is on purpose. All because of fear & hatred or because of by catch & nets disigned to catch other fish, but mostly because fear & hatred. Overfishing has lead to the decline of shark populations world wide. When a live shark is discovered in a fishing net by fishermen it is usually killed, & thrown back into the water. However when a live dolphin is discovered in a fishing net, every effort is usually made to save it. People need to show the same respect for sharks as they do dolphins & marine mammles. The whales are saved, now it's the sharks turn! Remember when you enter the ocean it's the sharks home, not yours. You have a bigger chance of being attacked by a pig than a shark. MORE--}
