I know how they did to the shark. Let me ask you a question, do u eat beef/pork/lamb?
People killing them in the so-called 仁慈 way, but if u like eat those meat, will u still like to observe how does a goat, pig, cow have their throat got cut-off?
I wonder if anyone here eat geese liver. the way the farmer treat the geese for their livers are not any better than people treating the sharks. I feel strange that no 食肉的愛心人士 here come out and speak for the geese
Back in 80's, live abalone was so cheap($4.00 per pound) in Vancouver,
the Chinese cleared the market, lead to the almost extinct of the species
and it became illegal to catch abalone in BC. 30 years elapsed and the
damage has not recover. It was caused by Asian, mostly Chinese.
In fact, I think Chinese is the only race obsessed with abalone, Japanese
use few abalone for sashima. The rest of the world? most people never
try in their lifetime.

Do you guys know that part of the problem is about the rate they catch and kill the sharks? (cos they only take the fin, so one boat can hunt hundreds of shark vs less than 100) And how slow shark grows? Because of lack of regulation/re-enforcement, some boat even hunt in the ocean reserve area. So if "free" hunting is an option, do you think anyone (if that's even possible) would consider farming them?
Studying of shark is still limited and because of their scary image, it's harder to get funding to study and protect them. (vs Panda and dolphins)
Yes, I don't like how cruel they cut the fin and let the shark drown and die. But the problem is about how wasteful this fining process is. And catching rate vs shark growing and recover rate.
Think of sea turtles legs.... what if they suddenly becomes a popular cuisine.
If they can farm abalone without seriously damaging the enviornment, I don't mind having that at wedding banquet.

chunsh, cool down sin la. The way fining shark fin is different to killing other animals for meat, people just cut off the fins from sharks and leave them to die in hours and days, cow & sheep & chicken etc die in seconds. Another thing is the food chain, for how many shark being killed will break the chain, and for how many cow and chicken being kill will? People only challenge those people feel passion and mercy on particular species of animals but not others. But they don't think about it in another way, actually it's for our own human sake, we want to keep our earth in shape longer. People have freedom to keep eating shark fin, not turning off power in earth hour day, keep paying dollars for buying plastic bags at shop instead of BYOB etc. I cannot do anything, I just do what I feel it's better, to myself and to the earth jeh.
