ban the trade of shark fins in the U.S. and its possessions

Created by D.S. on February 18, 2012

Sharks are apex predators that are critically endangered by the practice of shark finning--harvesting sharks just for the fins to be used in making shark fin soup. We ask for a ban on the trade of shark fins in the U.S. to help stop this barbaric practice and help preserve a group of creatures which may be necessary for the health of the oceans--the oceans that we all depend upon for life. The U.S. needs to set an example of good stewardship of our oceans--this is an essential step.
