Many people believe sharks are one of the most dangerous animals in the world. But according to a report, we humans bring a far greater danger to sharks than they do to us. Shark attacks(攻击) do happen. However, they are not very often. On the other hand, every hour, about 11,000 sharks are killed by humans. It is time that we should take action to stop many kinds of sharks from dying out.
Why should we save sharks? Because killing sharks is a problem for the whole world. Sharks are on the top of the food chain. They eat other species, but few species eat them. As sharks die off, the number of other species will increase. This, in turn, means the food that other species eat will become less.
So how can you help save sharks? Don't use shark products(产品). Pet food, energy drinks, leather products can be made from shark parts. And shark meat is sold around the world. Most sharks are hunted for their fins(鳍), which are used to make shark fin soup. The process is unfriendly and cruel. Fishermen often cut the shark's fins off and then drop the shark back into the water, still alive. Sharks breathe by swimming. So if a shark can't swim with its fins, it will die.
If you eat seafood, make sure the food you eat comes from fisheries(渔场) that care for the sea. Many organizations try to protect sharks. They give us advice on how to keep them alive.
No buying, no killing! Maybe that is the best way to save sharks.
