A Staggering Amount Killed

And if that wasn’t bad enough, a staggering 73 million sharks are killed due to illegal fishing every single year. Whether they are left on a boat to die or dropped back into the ocean, the result is the same, in their sad and barbaric death. Many sharks, while alive yet dying, are even eaten by other predators while waiting for their lives to finally be lost.

Surprised By Who Was At Fault

During Gary’s investigation, he explained, “[When] we found the big Maersk containers, the alarm bell went off because Maersk was the first to ban shark fins in 2010. So when you see a big container with Maersk on the side, you think, ‘Hello, there’s something going on here’.” And he was right on the money. He knew he needed to look even further into the case due to what he had found.
