Shark fin soup (86)
Tiger_Moth: Is shark fin soup destroying the shark population.?
A rising demand for shark fin soup is wiping out more than 73 million sharks every year, fuelling a practice labelled the marine “gold rush”. Finning, when a shark’s fin is sliced off while at sea and the body dumped back into the ocean, is rampant in many regions – fins are one of the most expensive seafood items, ending up mostly in soup.
I realise that yes we breed, hunt and kill animals for our existence but this to me is abhorrent when a shark's fins are cut off while still alive then tossed back into the ocean. Fins are for sharks not for soup.
What's your take on this ?

Morning from the U.K epirb.Hardly a comparison however tragic . They look upon anything in their ocean as potential food.
Another interesting article.

I'm not a vegetarian and do eat some meat and love fish so not a holier than thou person by any means but this sickened me.

Abhorrent.
I recall being in Indonesia many years ago for work purposes and our hosts took us to dinner at a popular restaurant.
It was a banquet with varied dishes constantly arriving from the kitchen and I politely tasted all including having a slurp of a globulous gelatinous soup which turned out to be shark fin
I hated myself immediately

I didn't post this thread in the humour section.
If you find being cruel to animals for the sake of making a few bucks is funny then think again

galrads: How does a finless shark move about in water without is fins?
The same way you would if your arms were cut off and you were thrown into deep water .Bleed to death , drown or get eaten by other sharks.That's the whole point of the thread Gal, man's inhumanity to our wildlife.

Look at chickens, we cut their heads off before ripping off their wings. Sounds like the shark isn’t killed first before it’s fins are cut off. Big difference.------ This thread is Archived ------

You obviously haven't my understood my thread at all. There is a huge difference in farming animals that are killed humanely and the indiscriminate slaughter of millions of wild life for one small part of its anatomy then leaving it to die .
Just a small sample of how these creatures are left after their fins are removed to make someone a bowl of soup. You find this acceptable
