Itโ€™s Shark Awareness Day ๐Ÿฆˆ๐Ÿฆˆ๐Ÿฆˆ
Sharks come in around 500 different shapes and sizes.
Many of these 500 species of Sharks are threatened of extinction. We are killing them by the hundreds of thousands daily. Donโ€™t buy pet food, cosmetics or pills made of Sharks. We need them alive, in the ocean. And above all, hey have the right to simply exist. ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿฆˆ

Did you know that sharks are frequently subjected to finning - a cruel practice where their fins are sliced off while they're still alive? ๐Ÿฆˆ

This leaves them helpless in the water, and they eventually sink to the ocean floor, dying of suffocation ๐Ÿ’”
