![Page 7: Species of shark implicated in attacks around the world from 1580 - 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070422/568164e7550346895dd75239/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Problem
• Nearly 1/3 of 400 species threatened with extinction• USA: 90% of shark numbers has dropped in the last 30
years
• Overfishing• Bycatch• Pollution• Shark finning
![Page 8: Species of shark implicated in attacks around the world from 1580 - 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070422/568164e7550346895dd75239/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Shark finning is an international issue
• Involves people of all backgrounds all over the world
