If they try and ban it completely it will become more expensive  and will cause more people to go hunting sharks for bigger money, and as for rhino horn being crushed into a powder to give you a hard on and it is made up of the same compound as toe nails so gather them up don’t let them go down the bath plug hole or just pop to the chemist he has some Viagra for you rather than the crushed rhino horn.   

 

Well, if a hotel in Thailand offers it: Put the chef, waiter, kitchen-staff, manager and customer who ordered it into jail for 1 week. Hotel will be seized.

If it is promoted also keep all other guests a few hours for questioning.

 

After that proceed with the fees.

 

Every boat that has any part of shark on it will be made into an artificial reef. All the crew will be in jail 1 week.

 

Still some will eat it but the price will be very high and surely less will be consumed.

 

 

Shall we do the same with those who "hunt" wild boar, deer, pheasants, grouse, partridge, wild geese etc?

 

We all love to slag off the Asians but forget our own "cultural heritages". 

 

 

Which one of these is endangered? Enough said...
 

 

 

Ah, so you only bother because you think all sharks are endangered. No worries about slaughtering those that are readily available.

I used to go to Taiwan couple times each year and the business owner we dealt with took me for dinner at the Hilton in Taipei he ordered sharks fin soup but I said no thank you but he insisted so I tried it first time to be polite it was shit horrible tast had couple spoons and left it he finished it off after his.

They believe it is afridisiac gives them big dick.

Ban it world wide.

 

I would end my business with that man. Or like share your insight with regards to shark fins, maybe he might change.

Shark meat is the staple diet of tens of millions of poor coastal people in South Asia. The meat is very firm and they make it into a very hot curry which they mix a little with a lot of rice . . The sharks fins are a bye product which gives the shark fishermen  a little extra income. Shark meat is often used in Autralia and New Zealand to make "fish and chips". So you who think that sharks fins should be banned. Do you agree that the fins should be thrown away and the fishermen deprived of a little extra income?

The real culprits in this business  of shark finning are the richer countries who don't eat shark meat. No real fisherman in poorer countries would do this kind of thing.because they can sell the shark meat. The raw fins have less value than the meat because 90% of the finished cost of sharks fin is in the processing.

Very severe penalties should be imposed on shark finners.

Just in case any of you "armchair critics" dispute my facts. I operated two shark fishing  trawlers in south Asia for over two years. .

 

Gamini, local shark in Aussie fish and chip shops is a rarity nowadays as is all local fish it's just too expensive, the Aussie f and c shops are full of imported farmed fish these days.
