Apo,its normally the middle-eastern and african boats that slice off the fins then dump the still living sharks back overboard to sink to the bottom,I have seen sharks caught in Pinas and they eat the lot,these were drying in Zambo on the pavement,I remember a shark-fin restaurant in Hong Kong that had a huge sharks fin as an advert,maybe 3 1/2 feet tall?Heres a pawikan penny![]()
