The cartilaginous fishes; sharks, rays, skates and the weird
chimaeras have always fascinated humans; the sharks for over-blown
fear of attack (more people are killed every year by falling
aircraft tools, pigs, tripping over shoelaces...); all for their
grace and beauty. I have personally campaigned for decades, trying
to educate people; for their protection in the wild as well as for
their careful selection and adequate care by folks who would take
the plunge in caring for them in captivity. It is indeed a travesty
that tens of millions of sharks are fished for their fins alone;
the rest of the animal usually returned as waste to the sea. I have
tasted the slimy, tasteless liquid that is shark fin soup... As
unacceptable to me is the mis-stocking and inadequate care afforded
sharks and rays placed in too small environments; improperly
filtered/maintained, and/or mis-fed and lost prematurely. It is my
fervent goat to help you avoid these major sources of mortality
through this written work.
