Shark finning is the practice of removing a shark’s fins at sea and discarding the finless body back in the water. It is a barbaric practice that has rightly been banned in the UK for nearly 20 years, but we do still import shark fins which may contribute to the practice. To this end, we will bring in legislation to ban the import and export of detached shark fins."� 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗜𝘁 𝗛𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗱 March 2020: Shark Guardian Ambassador Robin Gallagher started Petition� May 2020: Shark Guardian launched the campaign #FinspireChangeUK & #BanSharkFinUK� May - September 2020: The Shark Guardian campaign grew and got 115,380 signatures!� December 2020: In direct response to the Shark Guardian campaign and successful petition, the UK Government launched a 'Call for Evidence on the status of the Shark Fin trade in the UK'.� January - May 2021: Shark Guardian continues direct communication with the UK Government @defrauk � 12 May 2021: The UK Government launches an Action Plan For Animal Welfare that states they will bring in new legislation.

#Repost @paulhiltonphoto @download.ins --- The choice is ours, sign the petition, link in my bio, all UK citizens. If it’s one thing we can influence today and help create a better world then it’s a good day, and right now all we can do each day is try to make the world a little bit better than yesterday. That’s my goal and I’m sticking to it.. link in my bio. We are so close.. The UK is opposed to shark finning but have left a loophole in the law which means that fins from finned sharks can be legally imported.
