If you could see how shark fin soup is made,

how the shark's fins are cut off,

and how every year seven million sharks ultimately lose their lives for shark fin soup,

？

would you still buy it?

Almost one-third of shark species are on the verge of extinction,

！

but we can save them!

Please remember, when the buying stops, then there will be no killing!
