Bottom Line: I care more about the MEN who need to do this to make a living than I do about the SHARKS .....
Lulu, the problem is that they are being very wasteful and inconsiderate. The fins are the best part of the shark but they are far from the only part of the fish that can be used. By removing the shark fins they are taking the best part and leaving the fish to die. They are also wasting the rest of the animal. What they should be doing is harvesting the entire shark and be good stewards of the ocean.
