its not just shark finning that something has to be done about

why dont you start trying to save the ocean right here in your own back yard .i mean its good to know that people care about whats going on around the globe.but what about your own backyard

take a stand when you see someone keep an undersized fish

dont talk about it be about it

I do let people know what the rules are if they keep undersized fish and if they continue to have ignorance of the law i call FWC

Done. I hope with the publicity and the PSAs they ran on Shark Week, this will really snowball into something big and hopefully impact the problem (if that's at all even freakin' possible). Everyone should send this OC link via email to all their friends and relatives and anyone else they can think of!!!

I'll sign after I post this; I will also post this on different threads & probably should put it on it's own thread;
There is a movie: "SHARKWATER" it was put out by a Biologist,underwater photographer, Diver , & Shark fan ROB STEWART.
The film starts out with him telling how he got interested in SHARKS, diving, BIOLOGY, & combined it all to study Sharks; then ONE DAY..... he ran into a longline & had a rude awakening to what is being done to these mysterious ,beautiful Animals, all the finning , the longline illegal fishing, in Protected areas , like the Galapagos!

He goes out with the "SEA SHEPPERDS " to combat the longliners& finning ,all finning,
Shows how the SharkFin Mafia buys off the gov'ts. in S. American countries, , how they chase the SEA SHEPPERDS, after they caught illegal finning going on in COCOS .
You have to watch thhis flick! BUT it is hard to watch in alot of places ,if you love Sharks, & any Sea life , the finning parts are truly brutal & made me fightin' mad ,
There needs to be more done to fight this ,but there is ALOT of money behind it & it's hard to buck that kind of "pull" it's buying entire gov'ts. , but it shows how people in C. America woke up & FOUGHT , when they realized just what happened.
It's well worth checking out,
