Shark Finning and Shark Meat Harvest Cruelty

We humans need to eat in order to survive.

Meat, poultry, vegetables, fruits are some main examples that we need in our daily balanced diet. We consume food and eat happily without thinking how the food is actually being harvested. I am more keen to share about eating shark fin and shark meat as the information just come up to my knowledge. 

Shark fin demand has tremendously soared over the past 15 years. Personally, I have eaten shark fin soup before and it was good. However, after I've been told of how the fin was removed from the shark, I felt terrible. Worse, I decided to watch the video on how it has been done. 

In open air, there I was crying for the first time watching a video that shows the cruelty of humanity.

Watching the shark suffered really put me in terror. It's like slaying a human both arms and legs and while its bleeding and completely in pain and helpless, throw back the human in the sea. Letting the person to slowly died bleeding, in extreme pain, suffocated and helpless.

These cruel people do this to the sharks and this event happen 100 million times a year. 

98% of the shark that has been killed are discarded to die on the ocean floor.

Now, the shark population has been declined to 90%.

This is a video that I need to share to create awareness. Please watch and comment on how we can together prohibit this from happening as a community and for humanity.

Apart from that, shark meat is equivalent cruel too in how they harvest the shark and cut the meat. The shark must be gutted immediately after the catch and all the internal organs need to be removed until it bleeds out to death.

The reason being is the shark will urinate in its own flesh upon death and if the shark meat is not properly cleaned, it will build up high amount of uric acid in the skin and this may cause the meat to smell like ammonia.

This may lead to skin or other health problems if the shark meat is still consumed by the consumers. Moreover, shark meat is potentially dangerous to consume as the meat contains high level of metal mercury which can cause blindness, loss of coordination and even death (FDA, 1996).

 

 

Video: Over 73 Million Sharks Killed Every Year for Fins

I know there are people who still concerns about natures and humanity. Nevertheless, there are haters and people who really don't care and really think.

Stop saying that good for the sharks because those beasts kill humans, sharks are top predators and don't deserve to live, "who cares, there are still lots of sharks in the ocean".. People like these will only figure out how it feels if it happens to their species, their own family, friends, love ones or themselves. 

Watch this final video and please, this is not just for the shark, be HUMAN. 

Respect other beings. Love them. Don't get blinded by money and power. 

In the end you ended up unhappy with your dirty hands and soul. 

Your life shall not be blessed and you'll suffer in the afterlife. 

May God bless us for our mistakes and may He show us the way for goodness.
