Millons of fish and sharks are dying every year to fund the $100 billion    shark  fin industry, and all animals caught may be left dying for hours or in  some cases even days. Somehow, the authorities continue as though nothing wrong is happenning, the same for the fishermen. Sharks fins are brutally sawn off ,and then the animal is thrown back into the ocean. the fin is put in a soup or medicine in China. There are zero medical benefits, the fin is also tasteless. Meanwhilst other endangered animals such as turtles or sharks and other fish have already drowned struggling to breath after being caught on the long lines.
