Help to save sharks

[Guest guest]

Humans kill in excess of 100 million sharks a year. Most species of shark are not dangerous to humans. As shark fin is seen as a delicacy, usually only the fins are taken and the shark is tossed back to die a slow, painful death [as it can't swim without its fins]

 

Pledge to Save Sharks and support the listing of the porbeagle shark and the spiny dogfish on CITES! In Sharkwater, we find out the truth that sharks are not man-eating monsters and that killing them for their fins is a genuine threat to our oceans. Pledge to save sharks. Your pledge will make a difference. http://www.sharkwater.com/pledge_to_save_sharks.aspPetition to the European Commission to Save Sharkshttp://www.sharktrust.org/petitions/?rootid=6246 & toptab=8

Sharks have and undeserved reputation, not helped by films like Jaws,

and by paranoia in the tabloid press about 'man-eaters' off the coast

of Cornwall!

Yes, Ang. Peter Benchley, who wrote 'Jaws', was horrified at the way

sharks got persecuted after the film adaptation of his book. I kinda

hope a great white isn't seen off the English coast, as we'll get a

load of sickos trying to kill it, so as to get their ugly mugs

plastered all over the media.
