Outside Reading December 17

For this outside reading, I watched a show on CNN called Planet in Peril. It is about animals and wildlife that are becoming endangered and how some people are fighting against it. In this one episode, they talked about mass shark fishing. It was interesting to find out what they were using from the sharks. They were using the fins for shark fin soup. The fishers would throw out miles of line and attach thousands of hooks to them. Even though there aren't any laws against this, they are supposed to keep the bodies. Unfortunately most people just dump the bodies back into the ocean which is harming the ecosystems.
