Shark Finning contributes only to small extent for the killing of sharks (73 million sharks killed each year only for fins) while sharks are also killed for jewelry (shark's teeth), jaws for tourist souvenirs, skin for leather wallets/belts, cartilage for capsules and powders for phony medicinal cures and liver oil for cosmetics/skin care products....... And don't forget the by-catch, long lining, and all the rubbish we smart humans throw out into the oceans.
@bheta2k See, that's the thing. perhaps it wouldn't be such a big issue if the people would kill and bring back the whole shark instead of just throwing it back into the ocean. They are just killing the sharkds for their fins. Shark's fin also contains tons of mercury. it is incredibly unhealthy.

@dudeluvsbettas Obviously you need to get some facts straight. Sharks are killed for their fins. They are then tossed back into the ocean to die. Now, that is a proven fact. And if you think it's not, then please. Try to prove me wrong because this is a fight that I know I will win. So bring it on, buddy. :)

A 100,000,000 sharks die from shark finning every year. If you think that this does not cause a decline in shark population you must be pretty bad at maths or live on another planet. Sharks are not brainless killers. They don't just attack, actually they are very shy. You have probably been watching too many horrorfilms....probably the only thing your brain works for. Think before you speak...if you even know what the word 'think' means.

uhh, failing to mention the other major product...the meat! Well, I'm glad to see that all of the shark is being utilised :). Just to point out, finning I disagree with - it's barbaric.

@dudeluvsbettas Everything that you just said makes you look incredibly uneducated. this is a BIG issue. This isn't a lie? Do you even understand how monsterous human beings have become? We're destroying this planet! And sharks are actually very important to the marine ecosystem. I don't understand how you can say these videos are lies. This is what is happening in the world. It's sick and inhumane.
