What is this?
Finning, shark finning that: the cruel and unjustified nell'amputare all that is a shark's fins and discarding the body, amputee and bleeding, back into the sea. Once thrown into the waves, that 'the animal is just waiting for a slow and agonizing death that will take him to the bottom of the abyss.
Why this amputation?
The case is a stupid belief that shark fins, cooked in soups, have aphrodisiac and curative properties.
E 'illegal? In Europe
theoretically yes. Theoretically, because the current European law leaves room for smart.
fact, (carry from the site of Shark Alliance) "Although the European regulation on shark finning prohibits the removal of shark fins at sea, a derogation allowing Member States to grant special permits that allow fishermen to" work "the sharks caught, and therefore remove the fins on board vessels. " Pity, then, that it is impossible to check if the number of fins, once landed, correspond to the number of sharks caught. For this reason
Shark Alliance is working to strengthen the European law, forcing the fishermen to land sharks with their fins naturally attached. Only in this way you can 'be sure to end this barbarity.
