According to the Smithsonian’s Ocean Portal, around 100 million sharks are killed annually globally. Though there are many reasons for this staggering number, the primary reason is the high monetary and cultural value of shark fins, which can sell for as much as $500 a pound at the market. With its new report, Ever Wonder Adventure strives to urge authorities to adopt strict laws and regulations regarding the barbaric practice.

“The relentless hunting and killing of sharks for their fins, driven by culinary and fashion fancies, showcases shocking cruelty and a blatant disregard for their survival,” explained a spokesperson for Ever Wonder Adventure. “The purpose of our new report is to try and protect these magnificent creatures and preserve the balance of our planet’s marine ecosystem.”

Shark finning - which involves capturing sharks, removing their fins, and then discarding their bodies back into the sea - is already illegal in many waters. However, the practice continues to be a profitable industry in areas where it remains legal and with thriving black markets, generating between 400 and 500 million USD annually.

Ever Wonder Adventure argues, however, that the practice should be outlawed globally due to the ecological importance of sharks, among many reasons. They say that, because sharks are apex predators, they play an integral role in regulating the populations of other marine species, which in turn, prevents potentially harmful imbalances from occurring.

“If shark finning continues at its current rates, it will have dire consequences on our marine ecosystem,” said the spokesperson. “The time has come for decisive action against the hunting of sharks for their fins. We need to embrace a future where the consumption of shark fins as a delicacy becomes nothing more than a shameful relic of the past.”
