Shark Fin Soup

Shark Fin Soup

The purpose of this written article is to inform everybody , including those who did not eat shark fins soup about dwindling numbers of sharks because Asians are eating shark fins soup . The main idea is about shark conservation , extinction an Mankind’s survival . Sharks are only killed for fins to create shark fins soup . The fins are the main body part , to balance the shark itself . 100 million of sharks are killed each year for their fins . If too many sharks are killed , the ECO System will go haywire and unstablised as sharks are the to predators . If the sharks die , other fish will be affected . Oceans provide 80% of our oxygen . So , if sharks die , it will also effect Man’s life and soon we will also die . I can conclude that we should not killed too many sharks for their fins and meat , if not it will be extinct . The writer is assuming in this article that only Asians eat shark fins . However other countries like America are eating shark meat . We take for granted that Governments in Asia are not doing anything to save the sharks , but countries like Singapore , Japan and Korea have laws against shark fishing . The point of view we are looking from are Mr Shark’s and the conservationist’s points of view . If I were the boss of the shark fin soup company , I would lose business and might have to close down . If I were the sharks , I would be able to survive and live in the Ocean and continue to be the Top Predator ! ( Tuna , watch out ! )
