Justice for Finley
The Issue
A video, shared by Facebook user Christel Ýr Johansen, shows the two fishermen, identified as Halldór Gústaf and Gunnar Þór, depicts them cutting off the tail of a Greenland shark and laughing it off as they throw the animal back into the water. In the clip, the two men from Iceland can be heard saying “good luck trying to swim, you punk!” According to Bored Panda, the shark might have been trapped on the commercial fishing line and instead of setting it free, the men decided to cut its tail off and let it suffer as it swam away bleeding. People dubbed the shark “Finley”, and are now taking action.
