and say theres 10,000 fins up there. divide that by 6 or 8. lets say 7, since most sharks have more than two fins right? ok so its 20,000 fins. still only 3,000-4,000 sharks. about the same taken in socal by recreation fishermen who do not use the fins, liver or skins. just want the meat and/or teeth.
Have you seen the videos on how they gather the fins? Normally they catch the sharks, cut the fins of, and then dump the rest of the shark in the ocean. I have seen this a few times. If the entire shark was being used, I don't think there would be an issue, but that's not the case.

More education I feel is needed for most to understand what is going on here.
