when the buying stops, the killing can too

A shark finning protester hung herself to the ceiling of a shop window with shark hooks pierced through her skin. The stunt was part of the company's campaign to end shark's finning.A Lush spokesman said: "We are trying to change people's perceptions about sharks as a lot of people still associate them with Jaws.

"There was only one person killed by a shark attack in 2007, and yet we killed 100 million sharks for their fins last year, so we are clearly a bigger threat to them than they are to us."When they are caught the sharks are pulled from the water, their fins are sliced off, and they are kicked back into the ocean, so they sink to the bottom and suffer a slow death."please, let's all stop eating shark's fin. when the buying stops, the killing can too
