Shark finning is the process of removing shark fins at sea and discarding the shark’s body into the ocean while they are still alive. Sharks are a vital component of the ecosystem where shark finning threatens the stability of the food chain. Shark finning is diminishing not only the sharks‚ but the quality to sustain life among the bodies of water. Putting sharks to their death is inhumane by severely disrupting or unbalancing
