That, and cows aren't anywhere close to being extinct.
| I never said extinction wasn't an issue. No point aruging against facts. That said, majority of the livestock slaughter house uses arguably equally cruel methods to kill the animals (electrocution, sliting their throats to them let bleed out etc). Quote:

Wiping out a shit load of sharks all for a fuckin bowl of soup? just so that you can feel wealthy when eating it. Just because we are blessed with all different kinds of animals doesnt mean we have to chop each one up and eat it.
it all boils down to, why waste 95% of a animal for a bowl of soup.
| Many of the Taiwanese locals in the Southern communities actually eat shark meat as well..but do I expect that to be mentioned in an anti-shark finning documentary? No. Are those people in the majority? No..but still it's not ALL going to waste. If it's all going to waste, it will be completely worthless, not 2GBP/pound.
Just as if I were to suggest you to watch slaughterhouse documentaries...of course there will be ones that choose to kill the animals in a not-so curel manner..majority of them will find whatevers most cost/and time efficient...just like these shark-finners...why bring back the shark and carry more load on the boat when the demand for it is not very huge.

Now i understand and im sure twitchyzero does too that the sharks are going extinct (looks like he read 5 sections of this thread). He isn't denying that. He was just making a point that other people besides asians fuck shit up too when it comes to consuming non human species.
