Despicable
If this doesn't make you sad, horrified and completely appalled, you need to leave this blog. I've been scared of sharks since I was a kid. I don't go in the ocean because of this fear and I'm okay with that choice. But after watching countless documentaries on sharks I can't wrap my head around this the whole thing with shark fin soup and about people thinking these creatures are some kind of terrorist that needs to be hunted. It is just completely mental. The below graph makes me cry. Then I wipe the tears and blow my nose and I think, maybe I oughta write a kids book about a shark...and highlight their importance in the role they have in the oceans...
