Discussion Points: Shark Bait

Purpose of the documentary

In this documentary Mr.Gordon is trying to persuade people to stop eating shark fin soup because the more we consume the more sharks will get killed. 

Connections you see with the documentary?

People are just eating Shark fin soup because of just social status and some belief from the generation to generation that its good without knowing what exactly are shark fins. And the same for most people that are doing business about shark fins ,they just know the grades and price because they are just this to make money to survive .

Feelings after watching the documentary?

• I feel like some people thought they already knew the consequence of eating these soups they will still eating it because it can benefit them a lot. 
• I myself never liked Shark fin soup and after watching this make me doesn't like it even more
• We use only 5% of sharks body but humans hunt and kill them like sharks are treasure.

What can we do as students?

• As a student first we start will ourselves stop eating shark fin soup and then try to convince people around like parents or relatives tell them how many lives do we have to kill just for our own satisfaction. 

Questions

1. Is it just a matter of time that shark will become extinct if we keep on hunting them like this ?
2. What's the benefit of sharks for other organisms under the water?
3. Is it true that they just throw sharks back into the ocean after they got their fins ?
