Shark Finning on Longliner
Workers are seen by two dead shark carcasses and a polythene bag of shark fin on board the Taiwanese long line fishing vessel 'Sheng Chi Hui No. 7' at sea in the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of the Pacific island nation of Palau, 08 December 2011. The boat is suspected to have been shark finning contravening Palauan law, whose waters were established as a shark sanctuary in 2009. The Greenpeace ship 'MY Esperanza' is on a three month expedition to expose and stop destructive fishing practices, and to protect dwindling fish stocks in the Pacific.
