Mark's company has been killing sharks openly on his charters and on media for many years. Please sign to discourage this barbaric practice & educate the public of the importance of sharks in our oceans. 

Sharks are apex predators. That means the big ones are at the top of the seafood chain. They dine on smaller fish — like tuna — which in turn eat even smaller, bottom-feeding species — like scallops — that survive largely on algae.

Without sharks to keep down the population, those algae-eaters are more likely to be swallowed up by their natural predators, who rise to the top of the chain with no one to hunt them.

Without the bottom-feeders, algae grow wild, damaging coral reefs and other vegetation, as well as clogging up fish gills & contaminating seafood and water.  [sources: Domanico, National Ocean Service].

As top predators, sharks help to manage healthy ocean ecosystems, including seagrass beds and coral reefs. As the number of large sharks declines, the oceans will suffer unpredictable and devastating consequences.

Healthy oceans undoubtedly depend on sharks.  

Our fight continues, please end the cruel practice of killing sharks for fun or trade.
