The impact of overfishing on shark populations Overfishing has a significant impact on shark populations, leading to declines in population sizes and changes in the composition and distribution of shark communities. Many shark species are slow-growing, late-maturing, and produce few offspring, making them vulnerable to overfishing. Additionally, they are often targeted for their fins, which are used in the shark fin trade, and for their meat, which is valued for its flavor and texture. Overfishi

I’m beyond words to find out that the Shark Fin Sales Elimination Act finally passed the U.S. Senate. This means it is now illegal to sell or have sharks fins, a bill that was 1st passed in Hawaii in 2011. Thank u to everyone that helped to make this dream a reality. Now let’s push for world wide ban 🙏.
