From Predator to Prey

http://planetsave.com/files/2009/02/sharkfins.jpg

Sharks finning happens all over the world. Dodgy organizations long-line fish, catching not only sharks, but all the other fish that happen to get caught. These organizations, sometimes legally, sometimes illegally, get the sharks up from the water into the boat, cut off all the fins and throw the sharks back into the water. This may sound like a humane thing to do, letting them go, but you try and go swimming with no

limbs. The sharks can't swim anymore so they sink to the ocean floor, waiting to die. What was the main predator of the sea for 400 million years, has now become the prey. This is a complete outrage because the fins don't have any taste at all, so sharks fin soup is just plain soup. The fins are actually just like ear cartilage and have no taste. Whats more is that people sell the fins for heaps of money and more people think that eating sharks fin soup signifies class. It really only signifies ignorance.

We do have an acton plan, to educate the school of this horror. On May 20th, we are going to have a sharks fin day, with activities to help promote how bad sharks finning is. The few weeks before will be for raffles and assemblys to educate the school. A few days before, we may be showing sharkwater at lunches when you need to by tickets.
